Goldilocks needs to find at least 12 lbs gold and 18 lbs silver to pay monthly rent. Each day in Mine 1 she finds 2 lbs gold and 2 lbs silver. Each day in Mine 2, she finds 1 lb gold and 3 lbs silver. Set up and solve using either LPsolve or on-line solver How many total days in the mines

Total number of days in the mines = 4.5 days  + 3 days ≥ 7.5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Requirement : 12 Ibs gold and 18 Ibs silver  to pay monthly rent

Mine 1 ; 2 Ibs of gold , 2Ibs of silver.

Mine 2; 1 Ib of gold , 3 Ibs of silver

using LP

Gold :  aX1  + bX2 ≥  12   ( 1 )

Silver:  cX1  + dX2 ≥  18   ( 2 )

where; X1 = days spent in Mine 1

            X2 = days spent in Mine 2

Total days spent in mines : X1 + X2 =

a = Gold found in mine 1  = 2

b = Gold found in mine 2 = 1

c = silver found in mine 1 = 2

d = silver found in mine 2  = 3

Back to equations 1 and 2

2X1 +  X2   ≥  12 ( 3 )

2X1 + 3X2  ≥  18   ( 4 )

solving equations 3 and 4

= 0 +  2X2 ≥ 6  ∴ X2 ≥ 3 days  ( days spent in mine 2 )

Input value into ( 3)

2X1 ≥ 12 - 3 = 9

∴ X1 ≥ 4.5 days ( days spent in mine 1 )

Total number of days in the mines = 4.5 days  + 3 days ≥ 7.5 days

first one because it can't have a fraction in it

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation: the answer is 27. first multiply .32 by 25 which equals 8. then add 8 to 25 which gives you 33. then you subtract that from 6 since she gave 6 to her brother.
