Suppose you are starting your own company selling chocolate covered strawberries. You decide to sell the milk chocolate covered strawberries for a profit of $2.25/box and the white chocolate covered strawberries at $2.50/box. Market tests and available resources, however, have given you the following constraints. The combined production level should not exceed 800 boxes per month. The demand for the white chocolate is no more than half the demand for milk chocolate strawberries. The production level for white chocolate should be less than or equal to 200 boxes. Using the information in the problem, write the constraints. Let x represent number of milk chocolate boxes produced, and y represent number of white chocolate boxes produced.

y=mx+b

m slope

b y-intercept

step-by-step explanation:

let's cover over the formula of the vertex:

y = a(x – h)^2 + k

in this formula, (h,k) are the vertex, always remember that the positive or negative value of the vertex is based on the sign it has.

for example, if the vertex is -3,-6 then both the x and y value would have the positive sign attached to it and if it were a positive x and y value, then a negative sign would be attached to it.

with that being said, for our problem the x value is a positive one so we are looking for a number with a negative sign next to it, in this case the first and second choice.

however, for the first answer choice it isn't quite part of the formula so we know that the answer choice correctly displays the x value.

to confirm, we can see if the -1 fits correctly with the second answer choice, and as mentioned above a negative number will have a positive sign attached to it. so, for our problem we can see that -1 has been changed to +1, so we can confirm that the second answer choice is correct.

hence, our final answer is y=(x - 1)^2 + 1

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.
