2.A dietician has to develop a special diet using two foods P and Q. Each packet (containing 30 g) of food P contains 12 units of calcium, 4 units of iron, 6 units of cholesterol and 6 units of vitamin A. Each packet of the same quantity of food Q contains 3 units of calcium, 20 units of iron, 4 units of cholesterol and 3 units of vitamin A. The diet requires at least 240 units of calcium, at least 460 units of iron and at most 300 units of cholesterol. How many packets of each food should be used to minimize the amount of vitamin A in the diet? Formulate a LPP.

Consider the following approach: At an animal shelter, three types of food are provided for three species of freshwater turtles. Each turtle of species 1 consumes an average of 1 unit of food A, 1 of B and 2 of C per week. Species 2 consumes 1 unit of food A, 4 of B and 5 of C. Species 3 requires 2 units of food A 1 of B and 5 of C. It is known that the shelter can supply weekly 99 units of food A, 181 units B and 320 units of C. If we assume that the turtles consume all the food, indicate the number of turtles of each species that the shelter can maintain. a. Establishes the system of linear equations that models the approach b. Solve the system of linear equations using the Gauss-Jordan method
The Pretty Cat Company wishes to introduce a new brand of cat dry foods that meets certain nutritional requirements. The biscuit-1 contains 2 units of nutrient A and 4 units of nutrient B, while biscuit-2 contains 2 units of nutrient A and 2 units of nutrient B. According to federal requirements, there must be at least 80 units of nutrient A and 120 units of nutrient B in a package of the new dry food (biscuit mix). In addition, the company has decided that there can be no more than 30 biscuit-1 in a package. If it costs 2 cents to make a biscuit-1 and 4 cents to make a biscuit-2, what is the optimal product mix for a package of the new dry food in order to minimize the firm's cost? (a) Formulate this as a linear programming problem. (b) Find the optimal solution for this problem graphically. What is the total cost of a package of the new dry food using the optimal mix?
4. A body builder wants to build lean muscle using two types of supplement packets. Each packet of Brand A contains 10 grams of fat, 3 grams of carbohydrates, and 15 grams of protein. Each packet of Brand B contains 5 grams of fat, 6 grams of carbohydrates, and 30 grams of protein. He has decided that from these two types of packets, he would like to take in a maximum of 40 grams of fat per day and a minimum of 150 grams of protein per day. How many packets of each brand should he take per day to minimize the intake of carbohydrates?
Based on Angel et al. (2003). A fertilizer companyis trying to determine the cheapest fertilizer mix thatprovides desired amounts of nutrients. The mix ismade by combining the following fertilizers: SSA,SPO, GUR, TSP, KCI, FERT, and SPF. The mix cannot contain both GUR and TSP. The percentage ofpotassium (K), sulfur (S), calcium (Ca), sodium (Na)and phosphorus (P) in each fertilizer is listed in the fileP06_88.xlsx. For example, a pound of SSA is 16% Kand 26% Na. The mix must contain at least 600 poundsof K, 550 pounds of S, 750 pounds of Ca, 900 poundsof Na, and 750 pounds of P. The mix cannot containboth GUR and TSP, because if both are present in themix, the affect of other fertilizers is nullified. The costper pound (in cents) of each fertilizer is listed in thesame file. Develop a linear integer model to find theminimum-cost fertilizer mixture that meets the statedchemical requirements.
8. A person on a high-protein, low-carbohydrate diet requires at least 100 units of protein and at most 24 units of carbohydrates daily. The diet will consist entirely of three special liquid diet foods: A, B, and C. The contents and costs of the diet foods are given in the table. How many bottles of each brand of diet food should be consumed daily in order to meet the protein and carbohydrate requirements at minimal cost? What is the minimum cost? Note: Use the big M method. Protein Carbohydrates Units per bottle A 10 2 Cost per bottle ($) 0.60 B 10 3 0.40 C 20 4 1.50
An electronics company produces transistors, resistors, and computer chips. Each transistor requires 3 units of copper, 1 unit of zinc, and 2 units of glass. Each resistor requires 3, 2, and 1 units of the three materials, and each computer chip requires 2, 1, and 2 units of these materials, respectively. How many of each product can be made with the following amounts of materials? Complete parts (a) through (c) below. (a) Let x represent the number of transistors that can be made, y the number of resistors, and z the number of computer chips. Write a system of three linear equations when the amounts of available materials are 775 units of copper, 385 units of zinc, and 470 units of glass. Choose the correct answer below. A. 3x + 3y + 2z = 385 x+2y+z=775 2x+y + 2z = 470 O C. 3x + 3y + 2z = 775 x + 2y + z = 385 2x+y + 2z = 470 The company can make 6 transistors, 2 resistors, and 3 computer chips. (b) 770 units of copper, 380 units of zinc, and 490 units of glass The company can make…
Cholesterol Testing. A large health care organization uses three laboratories for the routine analysis of blood samples. It is important that the three labs provide equivalent test results. To check that, blood samples are obtained from 10 randomly selected individuals; each blood sample is then divided into three blood subsamples of equal volume; and then the three blood subsamples from each person are sent to different labs. For this problem, the analysis is confined to assessing the measurement of the total cholesterol level for a person. The data are in the following table.
1 mL of a bacteriophage suspension is mixed with 20 mL of a bacterial culture and 50% of the phages adsorb.
