Textbook Question
Chapter 12, Problem 4P
Hawkins Manufacturing Company produces connecting rods for 4- and 6-cylindcr automobile engines using the same production line. The cost required to set up the production line to produce the 4-cylinder connecting rods is $2,000, and the cost required to set up the production line for the 6-cylinder connecting rods is $3,500. Manufacturing costs are $15 for each 4-cylinder connecting rod and $18 for each 6-cylinder connecting rod. There is no production on weekends, so on Friday the line is disassembled and cleaned. On Monday, the line must be set up to run whichever product will be produced that week. Once the line has been set up, the weekly production capacities are 6,000 6-cylinder connecting rods and 8,000 4-cylinder connecting rods. Let
x4 = the number of 4-cylinder connecting rods produced next week
x6 = the number of 6-cylinder connecting rods produced next week
s4 = 1 if the production line is set up to produce the 4-cylinder connecting rods; 0 if otherwise
s6 = 1 if the production line is set up to produce the 6-cylinder connecting rods; 0 if otherwise
- a. Using the decision variables x4 and s4, write a constraint that sets next week’s maximum production of the 4-cylinder connecting rods to either 0 or 8,000 units.
- b. Using the decision variables x6 and s6, write a constraint that sets next week’s maximum production of the 6-cylinder connecting rods to either 0 or 6,000 units.
- c. Write a constraint that requires that production be set up for exactly one of the two rods.
- d. Write the cost
function to be minimized.

The full dataset is in the Minitab file coins.mwx. The dataset includes, among others, the values of the silver content of nine coins from the first coinage (variable Coin1) and seven from the fourth coinage (variable Coin4) which was produced a number of years later. (For the purposes of this question, you can ignore the variables Coin2 and Coin3.) In particular, in Activity 8 and Exercise 2 of Computer Book B, it was argued that the silver contents in both the first and the fourth coinages can be assumed to be normally distributed. The question of interest is whether there were differences in the silver content of coins minted early and late in Manuel’s reign. You are about to investigate this question using a two-sample t-interval. (i) Using Minitab, find either the sample standard deviations of the two variables…arrow_forward
