Suppose Texas, California, and Alaska each produce a million barrels of oil. 800,000 barrels are needed in Chicago at a distance of 1000, 2000, and 3000 miles from the three producers; and 2,200,000 barrels are needed in New England 1500, 3000, and 3700 miles away. If shipments cost one unit for each barrel-mile, what linear program with five equality constraints has to be solved to minimize the shipping cost?

6. The production manager for the COWRY soft drink company is considering the production of two kinds of soft drinks: regular (R) and diet (D). Two of her limited resources are production time (8 hours = 480 minutes per day) and syrup (1 of the ingredients), limited to 675 gallons per day. To produce a regular case requires 2 minutes and 5 gallons of syrup, while a diet case needs 4 minutes and 3 gallons of syrup. Profits for regular soft drink are $3.00 per case and profits for diet soft drink are $2.00 per case. A.What is the objective function? B.

Viking Oil Company has 5,000 barrels of oil 1 and 10,000 barrels of oil2. The comany sells two products: gasoline and heating oil. Both productsare produced by combining oil 1 and oil 2. The quality level of each oil isas follows: oil 1: 10, oil 2: 5. Gasoline must have an average quality levelof at least 8, and heating oil at least 6. Demand for each product mustbe created by advertising. Each dollar spent advertising gasoline creates5 barrels of gasoline demand. Each dollar spent advertising heating oilcreates 10 barrels of heating oil demand. Gasoline is sold for $25 perbarrel, heating oil for $20 per barrel. Formulate an LP to help Viking Oilmaximize profit. Remember, profit = revenue - costs. Explain what yourvariables represent, and how you arrived at your constraints, and thensolve this LP
A chemical manufacturing plant can produce z units of chemical Z given p units of chemical P and r units of chemical R, where: 2 = 40p.5 p0.5 Chemical P costs $200 a unit and chemical R costs $400 a unit. The company wants to produce as many units of chemical Z as possible with a total budget of $32,000. A) How many units each chemical (P and R) should be "purchased" to maximize production of chemical Z subject to the budgetary constraint? Units of chemical P, p = Units of chemical R, r = B) What is the maximum number of units of chemical Z under the given budgetary conditions? (Round your answer to the nearest whole unit.)

A company uses four special tank trucks to deliver four different gasoline products to customers. Eachtank has five compartments with capacities: 500, 750, 1200, 1500, and 1750 gallons. The daily demands forthe four products are 10000, 15000, 12000, and 8000 gallons. Any quantities that cannot be delivered by thecompany’s four trucks must be subcontracted at the additional costs of 5, 12, 8, and 10 cents per gallon forproducts 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. The goal is to develop the optimal daily loading schedule for the fourtrucks that will minimize the additional cost of subcontracting. Formulate this problem as an integer linearprogram, and solve it using linear program solver.
