umber company can convert logs either lumber or plywood. in a given day the mill will turn out twice as many units of plywood as lumber.it makes a profit 30 on a unit of lumber and 50 on a unit of plywood how many of each must be produced in order to make a profit of 13130

Question

anonymous · Answer

try making an equation first and set it all equal to =13130

dumbcow · Answer

2 equations, 2 variables
P =2L
30L +50P = 13130

anonymous · Answer

30 profit on unit of lumber
50 profit on unity of plywood

50(2p)+30l=13130

50(2x)+30x=13130               50*2x=100x

100x+30x=13130                  100x+30x=130x

130x=13130                          13130/130=101

x=101

101 units must be produced of each to make 13130

im not sure i understand how do these add up to 13130

anonymous · Answer

above i made an equation 
50(2p)+30l=13130 same as 50(2x)+30x=13130  just put in x for p and l
and solve for x...
