11) A company produces two sizes of a dog house, large and small. If L represents the number of large 11)
dog houses and S represents the number of small dog houses, then the polynomial 230L + 160S +
100 describes the revenue from the sale of the dog houses. The polynomial 170L + 130S + 555
describes the cost of producing the dog houses. Write an expression in simplest form for net profit
from the sale of the dog houses.
A) -60L - 30S + 455 B) 400L + 290S + 655
C) 60L + 30S - 455 D) 40L + 32S - 450
12) A company produces three sizes of a dog house, small, medium, and large. The small dog house 12)
sells for $80, the medium size for $110, and the large for $140. The small dog houses cost $50 each
to make, medium $70 each, and large $79 each. Let s represent the number of small size dog
houses, m represent the number of medium size dog houses and L represent represent the number
of large size dog houses. Write an expression in simplest form for the net profit.
