Homework Statement
Firstly I'm sorry to bother all of you that will find this question really basic but I haven't studied Maths since GCSE 7 years ago and I am now doing a degree in Engineering without A Level Maths so any help would be great...I need to work out the algebra and the main issue is how to plot it on a graph!? I'm guessing I need to use y=mx + c but I'm not sure how to do that on excel.
A builder has a plot of land available on which he can build either luxury of standard houses.
He decides to build at least 5 luxury and 10 standard houses. Planning restrictions limit him
to no more than 30 houses altogether. A luxury house requires 300m2
of land and a standard
house 150m2
. The plot is 6000m2
. Profit is $12; 000 per luxury house and $8000 per standard
house. How many of each type should he build to maximise his profit.
Thank you anyone that can help!
