A publisher makes romance and adventure novels. Romance novels sell for $9 and
adventure novels for $7.50. The publishers noticed that each month they sell at least three times as
many adventure novels as romance novels, but never more than 1500 novels a month. Let r
represent the number of romance novels sold. Let a represent the number of adventure novels
sold. Write a system of linear inequalities to describe the constraints. Then, write an objective
function that represents the profit made from the sale of novels.

For every calendar that is sold at a fundraising banquet, $8 goes to charity.
For every ticket that is sold, $25 goes to charity. The organizers’ goal is to raise at least
$6000. The organizers need to know how many calendars and tickets must be sold to meet their
goal. a) Define the variables and write a linear inequality to represent the
situation. b) Graph the linear inequality to help you determine whether each of the
following points is in the solution set. The first coordinate is the number of calendars and the
second is the number of tickets. i) (400, 100) ii)
(500, 100) iii) (100, 200)

A refinery produces oil and gas. • At least 3.5 L of gasoline are
produced for each litre of heating oil. • The refinery can produce up to 10 million litres
of heating oil and 8 million litres of gasoline each day. • Gasoline is projected to sell
for $1.15 per litre. Heating oil is projected to sell for $1.85 per litre. The company needs to
determine the daily combination of gas and heating oil that must be produced to maximize revenue.
Create a model to determine this combination. What would the revenue be? Optimization
Model
Let g represent the number of millions of litres of gasoline. Let h
represent the number of millions of litres of heating oil. Let R represent the total
revenue from sales in millions of dollars. Restrictions: g Î R, h Î R Constraints: g
