contract to start next. They will make £200 extra profit per day in the new contract. They are considering completing the existing contract asap but hiring more painters is difficult and only three more painters are available. Every 6 painters have to have 1 supervisor and each supervisor will cost £80 extra per day.
a) Analyse the extra costs/profitfor the contractor if they decide to complete the project by 15 painters.
In the next project: Two supervisors and twelve painters together will cost £1056 per day, whilst three supervisors and fourteen painters together will cost £1288 per day. Then:
b) Find, by the analytical solution of a set of simultaneous linear equations, the earnings for a supervisor and a painter.
c) Find, by the graphical method for the solution of a set of simultaneous linear equations, the earnings for a supervisor and a painter.
d) Use matrices to solve the same set of simultaneous equationsto find the earnings for a supervisor and a painter.
Thanks
