116. For a device to work properly, three subsystems of the device must all function properly. To increase
the reliability of the device, spare units may be added to each system. It costs 100 TL to add a spare
unit to system 1, 300 TL to system 2, and 200 TL to system 3. As a function of the number of added
spares (a maximum of two spares may be added to each system), the probability that each system will
work is given in Table. Use dynamic programming to maximize the probability that the device will work
properly, given that 600 TL is available for spare units. Identify and explain decision variables, stages,
states and formulate a recursion to design the device with optimal reliability.

117. You are planning on moving to a new house. You need to move n items of size aj , j-1,2,.,.n. You have
bought m boxes (box i has size bi , i- 1,2,.,m). You need to rent a truck that will help fit all your items in
it. There are two sizes of trucks to choose from: the smaller truck has a size of Qi and the larger truck
has a size more than Qi. Since the rent of the smaller truck is cheaper, you would like to rent the
smaller truck if the move is possible with it. Formulate an integer (or mixed integer) programming
problem in order to decide whether the move is possible with a single trip of the smaller truck. Note
that you can put multiple items in the same box and size is the only criterion determining if an item can
be put into a box.
