Summary Introduction
To identify: Constitutes of feasible solution area on the linear programming model solved graphically.
Linear programming is a quantitative technique in mathematical approach to determine the operational level activity to achieve an objective function by providing an optimal solution i.e. to maximize the profit, or to minimize the total which is restricted to constraints. The term linear represents the relationship between the objective function and constraints.

- A community council must decide which recreation facilities to construct in its community. Five new recreation facilities have been proposed – a soccer field (xs), an athletic field (Xa), a gymnasium (xg), a swimming pool (xp), a tennis center (x;). The council wants to select facilities that will maximize the expected daily usage by the residents of the community, subject to budget and selection limitations. The expected daily usage and cost information for each facility are given below: Recreation Facility Expected Usage (people/day) Cost ($ in K) Soccer field 180 50 Athletic field 130 20 Gymnasium 240 85 Swimming pool 270 40 Tennis center 70 15 The community has a $140K construction budget. The selection must also comply with the following two criteria: (1) At least two of the proposed facilities must be selected; and (2) gymnasium and tennis center cannot be selected simultaneously.

- The Perth Mining Company operates two mines for the purpose of extracting gold and silver. The Saddle Mine costs $14,000/day to operate, and it yields 50 oz of gold and 3,000 oz of silver per day. The Horseshoe Mine costs $16,000/day to operate, and it yields 75 oz of gold and 1,000 oz of silver per day. Company management has set a target of at least 650 oz of gold and 18,000 oz of silver. You boss would like you to focus on the following five issues: 1. How many days should each mine be operated so that the target can be met at a minimum cost? 2. Find the range of values that the Saddle Mine's daily operating cost can assume without changing the optimal solution. 3. Find the range of values that the requirement for gold and silver can assume. 4. Find the shadow price for the requirement for gold and silver.arrow_forwardJerry Wei, the hospital administrator at St. Charles General, must appoint head nurses to four newly established departments: urology, cardiology, orthopedics, and obstetrics. In anticipation of this staffing problem, he had hired four nurses, considered their backgrounds, personalities, and talents, and developed a cost scale ranging from 0 to 100 to be used in the assignment. A 0 for a nurse being assigned to the cardiology unit implies that the nurse would be perfectly suited to that task. A value close to 100, on the other hand, would imply that he or she is not at all suited to head that unit. The accompanying table gives the complete set of cost figures that the hospital administrator feels represented all possible assignments. Which nurse should be assigned to which unit?

The money can be placed in Treasury notes yielding an 8% return or in municipal bonds at an average rate of return of 9%. Cooperatives regulations require diversification to the extent that at least 50% of the investment be placed in Treasury notes. Because of restrictions of Bureau of Internal Revenue, it is decided that no more than 40% of the investment be placed in bonds. Determine the budget that should be allocatedarrow_forward

After narrowing her choices down to three models (X, Y, and Z) within her budget, she is having difficulty in deciding which one to purchase. She has compared each model against one another on the basis of four criteria: price, safety, economy, and comfort. Her comparisons are summarised below:arrow_forwardTwo vaccination schemes are recently adopted in Lebanon, Pfizer and Astrazenica. The profit for each one of these is dependent on the site (clinic or hospital) performing the vaccination process. This is shown in the following payoff table. Ministry of health considering the maximum profit to be able to cover the cost of staff where vaccination process can either be in a small clinics, or medium size hospitals or in main hospitals Assume the payoffs represent profits. Determine the alternative that would be chosen under each of these decision criteria: Maximin, Maximax, Laplace. In your own opinion, which alternative likely to be excluded and why? The ministry of health would like to check the possible loss. Find out the minimax regret table and identify the recommended alternative. Assuming the probability of getting Pfizer is 0.6 and getting Astrazenica is 40%, determine the expected value of perfect information using the regret table. Compute the EVPI again…arrow_forward
- National Foods Company has five plants where it processes and packages fruits and vegetables. It has suppliers in six cities in California, Texas, Alabama, and Florida. The company owns and operates its own trucking system for transporting fruits and vegetables from its suppliers to its plants. However, it is now considering outsourcing all its shipping to outside trucking firms and getting rid of its own trucks. It currently spends $245,000 per month to operate its own trucking system. It has determined monthly shipping costs (in thousands of dollars per ton) of using outside shippers from each of its suppliers to each of its plants, as shown in the following table: Should National Foods continue to operate its own shipping network or sell its trucks and outsource its shipping to independent trucking firms?arrow_forwardProblem 8-21 (Algorithmic) Round Tree Manor is a hotel that provides two types of rooms with three rental classes: Super Saver, Deluxe, and Business. The profit per night for each type of room and rental class is as follows: Rental Class Room Super Saver Deluxe Business Type I $30 $35 — Type II $20 $30 $40 Type I rooms do not have wireless Internet access and are not available for the Business rental class. Round Tree's management makes a forecast of the demand by rental class for each night in the future. A linear programming model developed to maximize profit is used to determine how many reservations to accept for each rental class. The demand forecast for a particular night is 130 rentals in the Super Saver class, 60 rentals in the Deluxe class, and 50 rentals in the Business class. Round Tree has 100 Type I rooms and 120 Type II rooms. Use linear programming to determine how many reservations to accept in each rental class and how the reservations should be…arrow_forwardWhich of the following linear programming model has bounded feasible region?
