Secondary 5 students are organizing a fund-raising activity in order to lower the cost of their grad dance.
During a volleyball tournament, they plan to sell
bottles of water and juice at a stand. The following
constraints are to be respected:
- At least 90 bottles of water and at least 90
bottles of juice must be sold.
- They cannot store more than 480 bottles at
the stand.
y
x 0 30

Letting x be the number of bottles of water to be sold and y, the number of bottles of juice to be sold, the
students transformed the constraints into the following inequalities:

The profit on each bottle of water is $0.90 and on each bottle of juice it is $1.40.
To determine their maximum profit, the students drew the graph of the polygon of constraints, shown above.
Before delivery, the supplier imposed a new condition: The students had to order a maximum of twice as many
bottles of juice as bottles of water. This new constraint will lower their maximum profit.
By how much would the profit decrease because of the supplier’s new condition?

Wheeler is a producer of mountain bikes and road bikes. Because of its small size, it can build no more than
80 bikes each week. To meet certain conditions in its workshop, it must build at least 45 mountain bikes, and
at least 10 road bikes weekly. To meet consumer demand, it must manufacture at least 3 times as many
mountain bikes as road bikes.
The following is the system of constraints for Wheeler's weekly bike production:
x = the number of road bikes produced weekly
y = the number of mountain bikes produced weekly
x ≥ 0
y ≥ 0
x ≥ 10
y ≥ 45
x + y ≤ 80
y ≥ 3x
For each road bike and mountain bike produced, Wheeler earns a profit of $250 and $175, respectively.
What is the maximum weekly profit that can be earned?

Murray plans a trip to New York in July. In order to save money, he works at two different part-time jobs on
weekends. At the first job, he works a minimum of 10 hours per month and at the second, a maximum of
40 hours per month. Murray must work at least 30 hours per month but no more than 60 hours per month. He
must work at least as many hours at the second job as he does at the first. He makes $6.30 an hour at the first
job and $8 an hour at the second job.

In the centre of a large shopping mall there is a pool with a small sailboat floating in it. The boat is held by a
4-metre long cord tied to a ring which is attached to the bottom of the boat. The cord is fixed to two posts, A
and B which are 2 metres apart at the water's surface.
Using a second-degree relation, describe the region inside which the sailboat can move. Consider the mid-
point of segment AB as the origin of the graph.

Some Mechanical Engineering students decide to build a miniature robot as a class project. Here is their
design :
•
The middle of the single eye is situated at the focus of the semi-ellipse, centre (0, 0). This focus is
located 4 units from the minor axis of the semi-ellipse.
•
The minor axis of the semi-elliptical head has a length of 4 units.
•
The semi-circular main body of the robot is defined by the equation : x2 + y2 − 25 = 0
•
The robot's semi-circular feet are defined by the equations
x2 + y2 + 6x + 16y + 72 = 0 and x2 + y2 − 6x + 16y + 72 = 0
