Solution
1)
Let Toronto and Ottawa equal x and let Montreal equal M
shipping cost
79x+66x+55M=5885
solve for x
145x+55M=5885
x=(5885-55M)/145
let\'s make an expression for M
if they bought 100 units then
M+x+x=93
M+2x= 93
M=93-2x
plug this into the above equation
and solve , we get
x= 22
M = 49
They bought 22 units each and 49 units from Montreal
2)
Let x be number of chairs , y be number of assembly and z be number of buffets
The system of equatons wll be
Cutting department :
0.9 x + 0.8 y + 0.6 z = 4490
Assembly :
0.6x + 0.4 y + 0.5 z = 2850
Finishing :
0.8x + 0.2 y + 0.3 z = 2270
On solving the system of equations by Inverse method of Cramers rule or Gauss Elimination , we get
x = 1500
y= 2500
z = 1900
3)
total amount of spending: 10000000
total number of vehicles: 260
number of small trucks: x
number of vans: 2x
number of large trucks: 260-x-2x
set up the equation: 50000x+25000(2x)+50000(260-x-2x)=10000000
solve for x :
x = 60
2x = 120
260-x-2x = 80
so they can buy 60 small trucks, 120 vans, and 80 large trucks
