1. A small refinery produces only two products: Super and Diesel. These are produced by processing crude oil through three (3) processors: a cracker, a splitter and a separator. To produce one barrel of Super requires 3 hours for cracker, 2 hours for separator and splitter requires three times the hours required for cracker. To produce a barrel of Diesel requires 4 hours for splitter, half the time required for splitter is needed for cracker and five times the time required for cracker is needed for separator. The factory has allocated at most 66 hours for cracker, 180 hours for splitter and 200 labour hours for separator. In addition, it cost the producer GHC45.00 and GHC90.00 per barrel to produce Super and Diesel respectively. Selling prices per barrel of Super and Diesel are GHC135.00 and GHC165.00 respectively. a. Formulate the manufacturer's problem as LP so as to maximize profit whilst satisfying the resource limitation. b. Determine how many of each item should be produced to maximize profit; c. Determnine the scarce resources

A brewery produces regular beer and a lower-carbohydrate "light" beer. Steady customers of the brewery buy 12 units of regular beer and 18 units of light beer monthly. While setting up the brewery to produce the boors, the management decides to produce extra beer, beyond that needed to satisfy customers. The cost por unit of regular beer is $32,000 and the cost per unit of light beer is $60,000. Every unit of reqular beer brings in $100,000 in revenue, while every unit of light beer brings in $300,000 in revenue. The brewery noeds at least $9,000,000 in revenue, and has determined that the total demand will be at least 50 units of beer. Complete parts (a) and (b). (a) How much of each type of beer should be made so as to minimize total production costs? 30 units of regular beer and 20 units of light beer should be made, for a minimum total cost of $ 2160000 (Type integers or decimals.) (b) Suppose the minimum revenue is increased to $9,400,000. Use shadow costs to calculate the total…
A manufacturer produces three products: Product A, Product B and Product C. Tobe able to produce each product he uses a combination of three distinct inputsnamely Input I, Input II and Input III the supply of which is currently at 730, 350and 350 units respectively. Each unit of Product A requires 6 units of Input I, 3units of Input II and 4 units of Input III to be produced. Similarly, each unit ofProduct B requires 8 units of Input 1 and 4 units of Input II while Product C uses 5units of Input I, 1 unit of Input II and 3 units of Input III.(i) Let a, b and c represent the number of units produced of Products A, B and Crespectively. The manufacturer must decide what quantity of each product toproduce so that his entire supply of inputs is utilized. Formulate his/herdecision in the form of a system of three linear equations in the variables a, band c. [3 marks](ii) Rewrite the above system of linear equations in the matrix form Ax = b.

Turbo Coolers Inc. builds cooling systems for industrial plants. A Type A cooler takes 80 W of power and can cool 18 liters of fluid per minute under the given conditions. A Type B cooler takes 100 W of power and can cool 60 liters of fluid per minute. A Type A cooler costs $3,500 and a Type B cooler costs $12,000. The factory has up to 1,000 W of power it can supply for cooling, and must cool 300 liters of fluid per minute. How many of each type of cooler should Turbo Coolers Inc. install in the factory to minimize cost? Formulate a linear programming model for this situation. Solve this model using graphical analysis.

A drug company manufactures two kinds of sleeping pill: Pill 1 and Pill 2. The pills contain a mixture of two different chemicals, A and B (and no other ingredients). Pill 1 must contain at least 65% Chemical A and Pill 2 must contain at least 55% Chemical A. There are two different ways to produce Chemicals A and B. Operating Process P requires 7 Kgs of A raw material to run for one hour and 2 hours of labor time (because it must be supervised by 2 workers). Operating Process Q requires 5 Kgs of A raw material to run for one hour and 3 hours of labor time. Operating Process P produces three Kgs of each chemical for one hour runtime. Operating Process Q produces 3 Kgs of Chemical A and one Kg of Chemical B for one hour runtime. There are L > 0 hours of labor and R > 0 Kgs of raw material available. The company earns A profit from Pill i of πi ≥ 0 (i = 1,2) Kshs per Kg. The company wishes to find a production plan that maximizes the profit it makes from manufacturing sleeping…
In a tank containing 200 liters of freshwater, 50 kg of salt is poured instead of 40kg. To correct this condition, 10 liters of brine are allowed to flow out per minute while 10 liters of fresh water per minute are pumped into the tank. If the mixture is kept uniform by stirring, find the time required for the tank to contain the desired amount of salt.
A company uses four special tank trucks to deliver four different gasoline products to customers. Eachtank has five compartments with capacities: 500, 750, 1200, 1500, and 1750 gallons. The daily demands forthe four products are 10000, 15000, 12000, and 8000 gallons. Any quantities that cannot be delivered by thecompany’s four trucks must be subcontracted at the additional costs of 5, 12, 8, and 10 cents per gallon forproducts 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. The goal is to develop the optimal daily loading schedule for the fourtrucks that will minimize the additional cost of subcontracting. Formulate this problem as an integer linearprogram, and solve it using linear program solver.

A tent manufacture produces regular and expedition tents at three branches. Per hour of operation, the Harrogate branch produces 20 regular tents and 10 expedition tents. The Skipton branch produces 0 regular tents and 20 expedition tents, and the York branc h produces 80 regular tents and 20 expedition tents. In order to meet the demand, the company needs to produce exactly 240 regular tents and 100 expedition tents each day. How many hours per day should each branch operate in order to produce the required amounts of tent? Solve using Gauss-Jordan elimination method.
A company is dedicated to the production of different vegetable-flavored milks. Currently the company produces two types of milk: almond and coconut, which it sells at $ 5,000 and $ 2,000 / liter respectively. Milk production is subject to the use of machine hours in the production plant and of water as a fundamental resource. It takes 1 machine-hour and 2 liters of water to produce 1 liter of almond milk, while it takes 3 machine-hours and 1 liter of water to produce 1 liter of coconut milk. The company currently has 100 machine-hours and 50 liters of water to make the milk, and it is also required to make at least 30 liters of milk in total. 1.
