Find all solutions whenever they exist x 6y = 8 10x 12y = x + 15y = -3 4x 6y = (5/4x (2/3y = 3 (1/4x + (5/3y = Determine the value of k such that the following system of linear equations has a solution, and then find the solution: 2x + 3y = 2 x + 4y = 6 5x + ky = Nutrition A dietician wishes to plan a meal around three foods. The meal is to include 8800 units of vitamin A, 3380 units of vitamin C, and 1020 units of calcium. The number of units of the vitamins and calcium in each ounce of the foods is summarized in the following table: Food I Food II Food III Vitamin A Vitamin C Calcium Determine the amount of each food the dietitian should include in the meal in order to meet the vitamin and calcium requirements. 6.- Manufacturing Production Schedule Ace Novelty manufactures Giant Pandas, Saint Bernards, and Big Birds. Each Giant Panda requires 1.5 yd 2 of plush, 30 ft 3 of stuffing, and 5 pieces of trim; each Saint Bernard requires 2 yd 2 of plush, 35 ft 3 of stuffing, and 8 pieces of trim; and each Big Bird requires 2.5 yd 2 of plush, 25 ft 3 of stuffing, and 15 pieces of trim. If 4700 yd 2 of plush, 65,000 ft 3 of stuffing, and 23,400 pieces of trim are available, how many of each of the each of the stuffed animals should the company manufacture if all the material is to be used? Give two specific options.
