Let (a1, b1),..., (an, bn) be n points in the plane R2. Supopse we are trying to find a line L with equation y = ax + ẞ, such that the sum of the vertical distances from the points. (ai, bi) to L is minimized. We set up the following piecewise linear convex problem: n min|aar + B = bi| α,β i=1 Note that here a, ẞ are the variables and that they are free variables.

Formulate but do not solve the following exercise as a linear programming problem. A financier plans to invest up to $400,000 in two projects. Project A yields a return of 10% on the investment of x dollars, whereas Project B yields a return of 13% on the investment of y dollars. Because the investment in Project B is riskier than the investment in Project A, the financier has decided that the investment in Project B should not exceed 40% of the total investment. How much should she invest in each project to maximize the return on her investment P in dollars? MaximizeP= subject to the constraints ? amount available for investment? allocation of funds?
Hugh and his partners grow tomatoes exclusively. Although they grow many varieties, tomatoes are all that they produce for leading supermarket chains in the UK. Should they diversify into related products such as lettuce? Write a summary report, focusing on the objective function, constraints, and decision variables that are used for Linear Programming. L for box for lettuce T for box of tomato
Formulate but do not solve the following exercise as a linear programming problem.A company manufactures x units of Product A and y units of Product B, on two machines, I and II. It has been determined that the company will realize a profit of $3 on each unit of Product A and $5 on each unit of Product B. To manufacture a unit of Product A requires 5 min on Machine I and 5 min on Machine II. To manufacture a unit of Product B requires 9 min on Machine I and 5 min on Machine II. There are 269 min available on Machine I and 205 min available on Machine II in each work shift. How many units of a product should be produced in each shift to maximize the company's profit P in dollars? Maximize P = subject to the constraints Machine I Machine II x ≥ 0 y ≥ 0
