As part of a quality improvement initiative, government employees complete a three-day training programme on teamwork and a two-day training programme on problem solving. The manager of quality improvement requested that at least eight training programmes on teamwork and at least ten training programmes on problem solving be offered during the next six months. In addition, senior-level management specified that at least 25 training programmes must be offered during this period. A consultant is used to teach the training programmes. During the next six months, the consultant has 84 days of training time available. Each training programme on teamwork costs £10,000 and each training programme on problem solving costs £8000.
- Formulate a mathematical model that can be used to determine the number of training programmes on teaming and the number of training programmes on problem solving that should be offered.
- Graph the feasible region.
- Determine the coordinates of each extreme point.
- Solve for the minimum-cost solution.
