Chapter 16, Problem 9P

In problem 16.8, only one reactor is used. If two reactors are used in series, the governing equation for the system changes. Find the conversions for both reactors ( x A 2  and  x A 2 ) such that the total cost of the system is minimized.

Cost = C [ ( x A 1 x A 2 ( 1 x A 1 ) 2 ) 0.6 + ( 1 ( x A 1 x A 2 ) ( 1 x A 2 ) 2 ) 0.6 + 5 ( 1 x A 2 ) 0.6 ]

Use the GRAPHICAL METHOD to solve this LP problem.
A company makes a single product on two separate production lines, A and B. Its labor force is equivalent to 1100 hoursper week, and it has $2800 outlay weekly on operating costs. It takes 1 hour and 5 hours to produce a single item on linesA and B, respectively. The cost of producing a single item is $8 on line A and $6 on line B. (Let the x refer to the number ofitems on line A and y refer to the number of items on line B.) (a) Write the inequality that expresses the labor information. (b) Write the inequality that expresses the cost information.
Consider a person who invests in AAA-rated bonds, A-rated bonds, and B-rated bonds. The average yields are 6.5% on AAA bonds, 7% on A bonds, and 9% on B bonds. The person invests twice as much in B bonds as in A bonds. Let x, y and z represent the amounts invested in AAA, A, and B bonds, respectively. x + y + z = 10,000(total investment) 0.065x + 0.07y + 0.09z = 760(annual return) 2y – z = 0 Use the inverse of the coefficient matrix of this system to find the amount invested in each type of bond. Total Investment Annual Return $10,000 760
