The manager of a customer support line currently has 250 unionized employees.
Their contract states that the mean number of calls that an employee should handle per day is 45,
with a maximum standard deviation of 7 calls. The manager tracked the number of calls that each
employee handles. Does the manager need to hire more employees if the calls continue in this
pattern? Daily Calls | Frequency | 26–30 | 3 | 31–35 | 15 | 36–40 | 44 | 41–45 | 76 | 46–50 | 63 | 51–55 | 39 | 56–60 | 8 | 61–65 | 2 | | |

For every quilt that is sold at a fundraising banquet, $90 goes to charity. For
every ticket that is sold, $65 goes to charity. The organizers’ goal is to raise at least
$7000. The organizers need to know how many quilts 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 quilts and the second
is the number of tickets. i) (40, 50) ii) (10,
100) iii) (20, 75)

A student council is ordering signs for the autumn dance. Signs can be made in
letter size or poster size. • No more than 50 of each size are wanted. • They need
at least 20 poster size signs. • No more than 75 signs are needed altogether. •
Letter-size signs cost $6.50 each, and poster-size signs cost $10.95 each. The student council
wants to minimize the cost of printing. a) Create a model to represent this
situation. b) Suppose that there is an additional $15 fee to set up the printers. How would
your model change?

A refinery produces oil and gas. • At least 1.5 L of gasoline are
produced for each litre of heating oil. • The refinery can produce up to 8.5 million litres
of heating oil and 4 million litres of gasoline each day. • Gasoline is projected to sell
for $1.05 per litre. Heating oil is projected to sell for $1.90 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

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
