A health food store stocks bottles of multivitamins. It orders equal quantities of stock from its wholesaler at equally spaced points throughout the year. The cost of replacing each order is $250. Moreover, the cost of keeping a jar of vitamins in inventory is $1 per year. The store predicts that it will sell 12,500 bottles of vitamins in the next year. How many orders of how many bottles each will result in a minimum cost to the health food store? Enter your answer exactly as: a, b (integers) where a represents the number of orders and b represents the number of bottles in each order (no units or words).

An open box with square ends is to be constructed with a volume of 125 cubic inches. The bottom is to be made of a material that weighs twice as much per square inch as the material used for the sides. What should the dimensions of the box be in order to minimize its weight? (Note: the actual weights of the materials do not matter.)Enter your answer exactly as a, b, c where these integers represent length, width, and height (no units or × symbols)

A rectangular corral with a total area of 60 square meters is to be fenced off and then divided into 2 rectangular sections by a fence down the middle. A rectangular corral with a total area of 60 square meters is to be fenced off and then divided into 2 rectangular sections by a fence down the middle.   The fencing for the outside costs $9 per running meter, whereas that for the interior dividing fence costs $12 per running meter. Which of the following statements hold, if the cost (c) of the fencing is to be maximized? (I) The constraint equation is 3w + 2 l = 60 . (II) The objective equation is 2l ∙ w = 60 . (III) The constraint equation is w ∙ l = 60 . (IV) The objective equation is C = 30w + 18l . (V) The constraint equation is C = 12w + 9wl . (VI) The objective equation is C = 60 - lw . The fencing for the outside costs $9 per running meter, whereas that for the interior dividing fence costs $12 per running meter. Which of the following statements hold, if the cost (c) of the fencing is to be maximized? (I) The constraint equation is 3w + 2 l = 60 . (II) The objective equation is 2l ∙ w = 60 . (III) The constraint equation is w ∙ l = 60 . (IV) The objective equation is C = 30w + 18l . (V) The constraint equation is C = 12w + 9wl . (VI) The objective equation is C = 60 - lw .
