A contractor builds storage sheds in two high end models, the Chelan and the Orondo. Each Chelan model requires: 2000 ft of framing lumber 6000 cubic feet of concrete $4000 for advertising Each Orondo model requires: 4000 ft of framing lumber 6000 cubic feet of concrete $6000 for advertising ● . ● . . . Contracts call for using at least 16000 ft of framing lumber, 36,000 cubic feet of concrete, and $30,000 worth of advertising. If construction cost for each Chelan shed is $40,000, and the construction cost for each Orondo shed is $30,000, how many of each model should be built to minimize construction costs?

Zaidah plans a raised flower bed 2 ft high by 12 ft wide by 15 ft long. The mulch, soil, and peat mixture used to fill the raised bed costs 15.75 per cubic yard. What is the total cost of the ingredients used to fill the raised garden?
A solar power field is located on the south bank of a straight river that is 2 km wide. A power line is to be constructed from the solar field to an electric substation located on the north bank of the river 4 km east of the solar field. The cost of running the power line is $100,000/km overland and $200,000/km under the river. To minimize the cost of the power line, how much of the power line should be run overland?

A city wants to build a new section of highway to link an existing bridge with an existing highway interchange, which lies 8 kilometers to the east and 10 kilometers to the south of the bridge. The first 6 kilometers south of the bridge is marshland. Assume that the highway costs $5 million per kilometer over marsh and $2 million per kilometer over dry land. The highway will be built in a straight line from the bridge to the edge of the marsh, then in a straight line to the existing interchange. At what point should the highway emerge from the marsh in order to minimize the total cost of the new highway? How much is saved over building the new highway in a straight line from the bridge to the interchange? (Hint: Use similar triangles to find the point on the boundary corresponding to a straight path and evaluate your cost function at that point.) The point is Bridge and we save S 8 million. - X Marsh Interchange
A community playhouse needs to determine the lowest-cost production budget for an upcoming show. They have to determine which set pieces to construction and which to rent. The organization has only two weeks to construct the set. The theater has two carpenters who work up to 12 hours a week, each at $10 an hour. Additionally, the theater has a scenic artist who can work 15 hours per week to paint as needed at $14 per hour. The set needs 20 flats (walls), two hanging drops, and three wooden tables (props). The number of hours required for each piece for carpentry and painting is shown below. Flats, hanging drops, and props can also be rented at a cost of $75, $500, and $400 each, respectively. How many of each unit should be built by the theater and how many should be rented to minimize total cost? E Click the icon to view the table of carpentry and painting hours. The optimal integer solution is to build flat(s) and rent flat(s); build hanging drop(s) and rent hanging drop(s); build…
The cabinet that will enclose the Acrosonic model D loudspeaker system will be rectangular and will have an internal volume of 2.4 ft3. For aesthetic reasons, the design team has decided that the height of the cabinet is to be 1.5 times its width. If the top, bottom, and sides of the cabinet are constructed of veneer costing 45¢/ft2 and the front (ignore the cutouts in the baffle) and rear are constructed of particle board costing 15¢/ft2, what are the dimensions of the enclosure that can be constructed at a minimum cost? width= ____ ft height= ____ ft depth= ____ ft
The Central Park Zoo needs to build a rectangular area of 225 sq. feet to holda zebra, a lion, a hippo, and a giraffe. The outside fencing costs $5 per foot. There must alsobe stone walls dividing the area into four distinct pens, which cost $15 per foot. Calculatethe dimensions necessary to minimize the cost of building this area.
A company sells rectangular vases, with dimensions of 2 inches by 3 inches by 4 inches. There are two options for boxes that they can use to ship. Box One is a 4-inch cube and costs $1.00 per box, but requires foam padding at $0.05 per cubic inch. Box Two costs $3.25 and does not require any foam padding. Which box is the most cost effective for the company?
A supermall produces two kinds of clothing: Clothing A and Clothing B. For materials, the supermall has 1200 sq. me of cotton fabric and 1050 sq. meter of polyester fabric. To produce Clothing A, it requires 6 sq. m of cotton fabric and 4 sq. m of polyester fabric. On the other hand, Clothing B's production requires 3 sq. m of cotton and 1 sq. m of polyester fabric. If Clothing A can be sold for $200 per set and Clothing B can be sold for $150 per set, what is the number of Clothing A and Clothing B that the supermall must produce to obtain a maximum sales? Use linear programming method.
