"Honey, Check Out My New Mask!" 4. Calvin and Clayton love sporting their fashionable Covid masks but are looking for something new. They research Honeywell, one of the leading manufacturers of the N95 respirator masks based out of California, U.S.A. They learn that Honeywell produce masks through numerous sewing machines within a factory, and they are coming out with a new type of disposable mask. The demand function for the new mask is p(x) = -4x + 42.5, where x is the quantity of masks sold in thousands and p(x) is the price in dollars (in thousands). Honeywell is planning on buying a new sewing machine for the plant. The cost function for the machine is C(x) = 8.8x + 55.4. a) Calculate the profit function for the new sewing machine. b) Calculate the break-even points for the new machine. c)Determine the maximum profit for the machine, as well as the number of masks that will produce that maximum profit.

5. Next Monday, Concrete Co need to supply concrete to four different building sites. They prefer to use plants 1 and 2 for the production and delivery of the concrete, because they are quite close to the sites, but find it necessary to use plant 3 to satisfy the rest of the demand. The table below shows supply and demand amounts in tonnes, and cost coefficients in $ per tonne. Cij Site 1 70 40 130 75 Plant 1 Plant 2 Plant 3 Demand Site 2 40 50 210 23 Site 3 20 30 80 19 Site 4 50 60 90 25 Supply 80 55 7 Concrete Co wish to minimise their total cost. Treat this as a primal LP problem. (a) Show that Concrete Co have balanced their transportation problem. (b) Use the Least Cost Method to find a basic feasible solution to this primal problem. Verify that you have the correct number of basic variables. [Hint: You should look at 13 first. Then 12 and 21 are both contenders, but it does not matter what order you choose them in.] (c) Use complementary slackness conditions to find a dual…

Your Turn: The Gas Guzzler Tax is imposed on manufacturers on the sale of new-model cars (not minivans, sport utility vehicles, or pickup trucks) whose fuel economy fails to meet certain statutory regulations, to discourage the production of fuel-inefficient vehicles. The tax is collected by the IRS and paid by the manufacturer. The table (top right) shows the amount of tax that the manufacturer must pay for a vehicle's miles per gallon fuel efficiency. 12.5 13.5 MPG (M) 14.5 15.5 16.5 17.5 18.5 19.5 20.5 21.5 22.5 Tax per Car (T) $6400 $5400 $4500 $3700 $3300 $2600 $2100 $1700 $1300 $1000 $0 1. Plot the data, verify that they are roughly linear, and add a line of best fit. Line of Best Fit: 2. Identify and interpret the meaning of the slope and the vertical intercept. 3. Predict the tax for a car which gets 20 MPG. Is this interpolation or extrapolation? 4. Predict the tax for a car which gets 10 MPG. Is this interpolation or extrapolation? 5.

Hi, I need help solving this OM problem. Thank you! Table E.3 is shown in the blue box onscreen.
If Starbright Coffee Shop could get 1 more pound of coffee, which one should it be?What would be the effect on sales of getting 1 more pound of this coffee?• If the costs associated with increasing brewing capacity from 30 gallons to 40 gallonsper day come out to roughly $15 per day, would such a change be profitable?• If the shop spent $20 per day on advertising that would increase the relative demandfor Pomona to twice that of Coastal, should it be done?
A company has $19,310 avallable per month for advertlsing. Newspaper ads cost $160 each and can't run more than 22 times per month. Radio ads cost $620 each and can't run more than 31 times per month at this price. Each newspaper ad reaches 6500 potential customers, and each radio ad reaches 7700 potential customers. The company wants to maximize the number of ad exposures to potential customers. Use n for number of Newspaper advertisements and r for number of Radio advertisements. Maximize P = subject to 22 < 31 < $19, 310 Enter the solution below. If needed, round ads to 1 decimal palace and group exposure to the
Production Line Speed and Quality Control. Brawdy Plastics, Inc., produces plastic seat belt retainers for General Motors at the Brawdy Plastics plant in Buffalo, New York. After final assembly and painting, the parts are placed on a conveyor belt that moves the parts past a final inspection station. How fast the parts move past the final inspection station depends upon the line speed of the conveyor belt (feet per minute. Although faster line speeds are desirable, management is concerned that increasing the line speed too much may not provide enough time for inspectors to identify which parts are actually defective. To test this theory, Brawdy Plastics conducted an experiment in which the same batch of parts, with a known number of defective parts, was inspected using a variety of line speeds. The following data were collected. a Develop a scatter diagram with the line speed as the independent variable. b) What does the scatter diagram developed in part (a) indicate about the…
A family is relocating from St. Louis, Missouri, to California. Due to an increasing inventory of houses in St. Louis, it is taking longer than before to sell a house. The wife is concerned and wants to know when it is optimal to put their house on the market. Her realtor friend informs them that the last 24 houses that sold in their neighborhood took an average time of 135 days to sell. The realtor also tells them that based on her prior experience, the population standard deviation is 88 days. [You may find it useful to reference the z table.]a. What assumption regarding the population is necessary for making an interval estimate for the population mean?multiple choice Assume that the central limit theorem applies. Assume that the population has a normal distribution. b. Construct the 90% confidence interval for the mean sale time for all homes in the neighborhood. (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places. Round "z" value to 3 decimal places and final…
Freddy is the owner of Freddy’s fast fuel for Small Aircraft specializing in “Providing flight fit fantastic fuel” for small general aviation aircraft such as a Cessna 172. Freddy is experimenting with a fueling process involving new equipment and is trying to determine if the current process takes more time than the new process with the new equipment he is experimenting with. If the current process takes more time than the new process, Freddy will purchase some new, rather expensive fueling equipment to use across several small general aviation airports his company services. Freddy is comparing sample mean times to evaluate his hypothesis about the population (total number of aircraft fuel fill-ups). Over the period of a week, he took a random sample of fuel fill-up times using both the old and new processes. Using the information Freddy provided, you ran a t-test for independent samples. These are the results (α = .05). t-Test: Two-Sample Assuming Unequal Variance Current…
