Part B of this question Model C has been discontinued. If 25 boxes of model A and 33 boxes of model B are to be delivered how many vehicles of each type should be used so that all operate at full capacity

Answer 1

I see the following matrix equation:

[t,v,c)
x
│2 2 3│
│3 4 2│
│3 5 1│
=
[25 33 22]

or
2t + 3v + 3c = 25
2t + 4v + 5c = 33
3t + 2v + c = 22

solve it as a system of equations.
