Question (0) P An electronics company produces transistors, resistors, and computer chips. Each transistor requires 3 units of copper, 2 units of zinc, and 1 unit of glass. Each resistor requires 3, 1, and 2 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 1925 units of copper, 890 units of zinc, and 1360 units of glass? Solve this exercise by using the inverse of the coefficient matrix to solve a system of equations.

Tim Smunt has been asked to evaluate two machines. After some investigation, he determines that they have the costs shown in the following table: He is told to assume that: 1. The life of each machine is 3 years. Machine A Machine B Original Cost Labor per year $15,000 $20,000 $2,200 $4,000 Maintenance per year Salvage value $4,600 $1,000 $2,400 $7,500 2. The company thinks it knows how to make 8% on investments no more risky than this one. 3. Labor and maintenance are paid at the end of the year. • The NPV for Machine A: The NPV for Machine B: Using the net present value as the basis of comparing the machines, Tim should recommend:

1. "The Diet Problem": Suppose that a thrifty patient of limited means was advised by his doctor to increase the consumption of Vegetable1 and Vegetable2 in his diet. In each meal he must get no less than 200 cal from this combination and no more than 14 units of fat. When he consulted his diet book, he found the following information: there are 150 cal in a kg of Vegetable1 and 200 cal in a kg of Vegetable2. However there are 14 units of fat in a kg of Vegetable1 and 4 units of fat in a kg of Vegetable2. Vegetablel costs at least Rs.30 per kg and Vegetable2 costs at least Rs.50 per kg. He can afford to pay only the least price. How do he meet the requirement set by the doctor?
1 mL of a bacteriophage suspension is mixed with 20 mL of a bacterial culture and 50% of the phages adsorb. We know that the bacteriophage suspension had a concentration of 1x1010 viruses per mL, and the bacterialculture had a concentration of 3x108 bacteria per mL. A. What fraction of the cells is uninfected? B, What fraction of the cells is single infected? C. What fraction of the cells is multiple infected?
A tent manufacture produces regular and expedition tents at three branches. Per hour of operation, the Harrogate branch produces 20 regular tents and 10 expedition tents. The Skipton branch produces 0 regular tents and 20 expedition tents, and the York branc h produces 80 regular tents and 20 expedition tents. In order to meet the demand, the company needs to produce exactly 240 regular tents and 100 expedition tents each day. How many hours per day should each branch operate in order to produce the required amounts of tent? Solve using Gauss-Jordan elimination method.
You are in charge of purchases at the student-run used-book supply program at your college, and you must decide how many introductory calculus, history, and marketing texts should be purchased from students for resale. Due to budget limitations, you cannot purchase more than 900 of these textbooks each semester. There are also shelf-space limitations: Calculus texts occupy 2 units of shelf space each, history books 1 unit each, and marketing texts 2 units each, and you can spare at most 1,400 units of shelf space for the texts. If the used book program makes a profit of $10 on each calculus text, $4 on each history text, and $8 on each marketing text, how many of each type of text should you purchase to maximize profit?
