Let's approach this problem by slowly eliminating choices.

First consider the keyword "at most" and "no more than". This means that the inequality should be less than or equal to the constant value stated. This will automatically eliminate two choices with the greater than symbol favoring the variables - choices A and D.

Next we associate the right constants to the right coefficients of variables. The two kinds of weight the truck transports are 30 and 65 lbs, and we know that this should not exceed 3,800 lbs. This is therefore our first inequality. The other inequality is for the volume. The combinations of the two volumes 4 and 9 cubic feet should not exceed 400 cubic feet when transported.

If you try to construct the inequality and miss it among the choices, don't worry! Let's try doing some simplifications first and see if it matches either B or C.

After simplification you can get $6x+13y \leq 760$ from dividing the equation by 5 and $4x+9y \leq 400$ for leaving it as it is.

Looking carefully, we can see that this is equivalent to option B.

ANSWER: B.

The possible numbers of packages the truck can transport at one time is determined by 6x + 13y ≤ 760 and 4x + 9y ≤ 400

Let x represent the number of small packages and y represent the number of large packages.

Since the truck can transport packages weighing at most 3,800 pounds(lbs), hence:

30x + 65y ≤ 3800

6x + 13y ≤ 760 (1)

Also, the volume of no more than 400 cubic feet (ft^3), hence:

4x + 9y ≤ 400 (2)

Hence, the possible numbers of packages the truck can transport at one time is determined by 6x + 13y ≤ 760 and 4x + 9y ≤ 400

the value of v.w= -12.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given three vector r,v and w as:

r = < 5, -5, -2> ; v = < 2, -8, -8> ; w = < -2, 6, -5>

we know that r,v and w could also be represented as:

r=5i-5j-2k

v=2i-8j-8k

and w= -2i+6j-5k

where i,j and k are the unit vectors of x,y and z-axis respectively.

also we know that it has the following property:

i.i=1 ; j.j=1; k.k=1

and i.=j.i=i.k=k.i=j.k=k.j=0

i.e. when we multiply two vectors or we find it's dot product we need to only multiply the components of x coordinates with each other; y with each other and z with each other.

hence, v.w= (2i-8j- -2i+6j-5k)

= 2×(-2)+(-8)×(6)+(-8)×(-5)

= -4-48+40

= -12

hence, v.w= -12
