Solve the following LP problem using the Extreme Point Theorem: Subject to: Maximize Z-6+4y 2+y≤8 2x + y ≤10 2,y20 Solve it using the graphical method. Guidelines for preparation for the teacher's questions: Understand the basics of Linear Programming (LP) 1. Know how to formulate an LP model. 2. Be able to identify decision variables, objective functions, and constraints. Be comfortable with graphical solutions 3. Know how to plot feasible regions and find extreme points. 4. Understand how constraints affect the solution space. Understand the Extreme Point Theorem 5. Know why solutions always occur at extreme points. 6. Be able to explain how optimization changes with different constraints. Think about real-world implications 7. Consider how removing or modifying constraints affects the solution. 8. Be prepared to explain why LP problems are used in business, economics, and operations research.
ged the variance for group 1) Different groups of male stalk-eyed flies were raised on different diets: a high nutrient corn diet vs. a low nutrient cotton wool diet. Investigators wanted to see if diet quality influenced eye-stalk length. They obtained the following data: d Diet Sample Mean Eye-stalk Length Variance in Eye-stalk d size, n (mm) Length (mm²) Corn (group 1) 21 2.05 0.0558 Cotton (group 2) 24 1.54 0.0812 =205-1.54-05T a) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference in mean eye-stalk length between the two diets (e.g., use group 1 - group 2).
An article in Business Week discussed the large spread between the federal funds rate and the average credit card rate. The table below is a frequency distribution of the credit card rate charged by the top 100 issuers. Credit Card Rates Credit Card Rate Frequency 18% -23% 19 17% -17.9% 16 16% -16.9% 31 15% -15.9% 26 14% -14.9% Copy Data 8 Step 1 of 2: Calculate the average credit card rate charged by the top 100 issuers based on the frequency distribution. Round your answer to two decimal places.
