@iGreen

Answer 5

@freckles please help

Answer 6

this is linear programming?

Answer 7

i think it is
take your corner points and plug them in

Answer 8

i dont have a calculator

Answer 9

im not sure

Answer 10

@freckles

Answer 11

you don't need a calculator

Answer 12

they even tell you the points for the corners in your pictures

Answer 13

for the first picture I see (0,5) and (3,0) and (2,1)
plug those in to your first equation

Answer 14

for example
P(x,y)=3x+y
P(0,5)=3*0+5=?
and then so on
you will plug all three of those points in
and see which gives you the smallest number

Answer 15

since you are looking for min value in the first problem

Answer 16

i just really dont understand this

Answer 17

can you not do the operations I suggested above?

Answer 18

P(0,5)=3*0+5=?

Answer 19

=5

Answer 20

?

Answer 21

then plug in the other points

Answer 22

P(2,1)=3*2+1=?

Answer 23

7

Answer 24

and plug in the last point that was given

Answer 25

then compare the outputs

Answer 26

p(0,3)=3*0+1?

Answer 27

(3,0) isn't the same as (0,3)

Answer 28

0*3?

Answer 29

plug in (3,0) not (0,3)

Answer 30

i really dont get it

Answer 31

i tried both ways

Answer 32

no you haven't plugged in (3,0) which is point they want you to plug in
they never said anything about (0,3)

Answer 33

p(3,0)=3*0+1?

Answer 34

P(x,y)=3x+y

(3,0) is not the same as (0,3)
(3,0) means x is 3 and y is 0
(0,3) means x is 0 and y is 3 <---we aren't suppose to plug this in

Answer 35

you said you wanted to plug in (3,0) but you plug in (0,1)

Answer 36

3+1?
