My view of how math is used in the real world didn’t change much with this assignment, but just again reassured it how important it is.  Math can be used for so many other things then just on the white board at school. It has many practical uses.  I think technology has made a lot of these things much simpler with a program you can simply enter your info into and it will give you your answer, it takes all of the messy parts out of it. A friend and I used something similar to maximize his business profits, he started a snowplowing business and only could have a certain amount of clients, at the same time he needed to know how many of those clients should be on a contract monthly, or pay him per each time he cleared there snow.  It has helped him out a lot to have an idea of how much he could make and what would be the best option for him to use.  I’m sure I’ll continue to use math to figure out my daily tasks and problems. 

 

Above: The last four equations show the limits on the graph, y=-4/3x+16, y=-2x+18, x>_0, y>_0,   and very last the profit function, P=56x+38y 

Right:-The graph to the Right shows all the restrictions graphed out, with the vertice at (3,12) those points were found by setting the equations equal to eachother, that point is the maximum amount of production with the highest profit.  that is 3 desks, and 12 book cases per week to reach our maximum profit of 624$
