Problem 9-05 (Algorithmic)
Kilgore's Deli is a small delicatessen located near a major university. Kilgore's does a large walk-in carry-out lunch business. The deli offers two luncheon chili specials, Wimpy and Dial 911. At the beginning of the day, Kilgore needs to decide how much of each special to make (he always sells out of whatever he
makes). The profit on one serving of Wimpy is $0.46, on one serving of Dial 911, $0.59. Each serving of Wimpy requires 0.26 pound of beef, 0.26 cup of onions, and 6 ounces of Kilgore's special sauce. Each serving of Dial 911 requires 0.26 pound of beef, 0.41 cup of onions, 3 ounces of Kilgore's special sauce, and 6
ounces of hot sauce. Today, Kilgore has 21 pounds of beef, 16 cups of onions, 89 ounces of Kilgore's special sauce, and 61 ounces of hot sauce on hand.
a. Develop a linear programming model that will tell Kilgore how many servings of Wimpy and Dial 911 to make in order to maximize his profit today.…

- Problem 7-41 Southern Oil Company produces two grades of gasoline: regular and premium. The profit contributions are $0.30 per gallon for regular gasoline and $0.50 per gallon for premium gasoline. Each gallon of regular gasoline contains 0.3 gallons of grade A crude oil and each gallon of premium gasoline contains 0.6 gallons of grade A crude oil. For the next production period, Southern has 18,000 gallons of grade A crude oil available. The refinery used to produce the gasolines has a production capacity of 50,000 gallons for the next production period. Southern Oil's distributors have indicated that demand for the premium gasoline for the next production period will be at most 20,000 gallons. a.
