Chapter 13.4, Problem 1MC

The following figure is a partial tessellation of the plane with the trapezoid A B C D .

Chapter 13.4, Problem 1MC, The following figure is a partial tessellation of the plane with the trapezoid ABCD. a. Tessellate

a. Tessellate the plane with a triangle and show how the tessellation can be used to find the relationship between the length of the segment connecting the midpoints of the two sides of a triangle and the length of the third side(the Midsegment Theorem of Chapter 12).

b. Explain how the tessellation can be used to find a relationship between the midsegment of the trapezoid and the bases.

Tri-County Utilities, Inc., supplies natural gas to customers in a three-county area. The company purchases natural gas from two companies: Southern Gas and Northwest Gas. Demand forecasts for the coming winter season are as follows: Hamilton County, 400 units; Butler County, 200 units; and Clermont County, 300 units. Contracts to provide the following quantities have been written: Southern Gas, 500 units; and Northwest Gas, 400 units. Distribution costs for the counties vary, depending upon the location of the suppliers. The distribution costs per unit (in thousands of dollars) are as follows.

As discussed in Section 8.3, the Markowitz model uses the variance of the portfolio as the measure of risk. However, variance includes deviations both below and above the mean return. Semivariance includes only deviations below the mean and is considered by many to be a better measure of risk. (a) Develop a model that minimizes semivariance for the Hauck Financial data given in the file HauckData with a required return of 10%. Assume that the five planning scenarios in the Hauck Financial Services model are equally likely to occur. Hint: Modify model (8.10)–(8.19). Define a variable ds for each scenario and let ds ≥ R − Rs with ds ≥ 0. Then make the objective function: Min 1 5 5 s = 1 ds2. Let FS = proportion of portfolio invested in the foreign stock mutual fund IB = proportion of portfolio invested in the intermediate-term bond fund LG = proportion of portfolio invested in the large-cap growth fund LV = proportion of portfolio invested in the large-cap value fund…
