A
wind
turbine
turns
wind
energy
into
electricity
using
the
aerodynamic
force
from
the
rotor
blades.
In

wind
power
accounted
for
5
percent
of
all
electricity
generated
in
the
United
States.
The
US
Geological
Survey
compiled
a
database
of
over
53,700
wind
turbines
in
the
country.
Several
variables
measured
for
each
wind
turbine
in
the
database
are
listed.
Determine
the
type
of
data
(quantitative
or
qualitative)
recorded
for
each
variable.
(Note:
A
project
consists
of
multiple
wind
turbines
that
form
a
single
system.)

11 Sunco Oil has refineries in Los Angeles and Chicago.The Los Angeles refinery can refine up to 2 million barrelsof oil per year, and the Chicago refinery up to 3 million.Once refined, oil is shipped to two distribution points:Houston and New York City. Sunco estimates that eachdistribution point can sell up to 5 million barrels per year.Because of differences in shipping and refining costs, theprofit earned (in dollars) per million barrels of oil shippeddepends on where the oil was refined and on the point ofdistribution (see Table 51). Sunco is considering expandingthe capacity of each refinery. Each million barrels of annualrefining capacity that is added will cost $120,000 for the LosAngeles refinery and $150,000 for the Chicago refinery. Uselinear programming to determine how Sunco can maximizeits profits less expansion costs over a ten-year period.

Fluid runs through a drainage pipe with a 10-cm radius and a length of 30m (3000cm). The velocity of the fluid gradually decreases from the center of the pipe toward the edges as a result of friction with the walls of the pipe. For the data shown, v(x) is the velocity of the fluid (in. cm/sec) and x represents the distance (in. cm) from the center of the pipe toward the edge.
