Tasks: A company manufactures two electronic products: Chipsets and LCD. Each product contributes differently to the profit. The production process is subject to constraints related to labour, manufacturing space, raw materials, and production time. You are required to determine the optimal production quantities for each product to maximize profit: • Develop and formulate a Linear programming model for the variables and constraints from the above context as given in Table 1 & 2. Assume Right-Hand Side (R.H.S) values for all elements and find the maximum profit and optimal variable values using graphical method (40%). Table I Variables Chipsets Profit Per Unit Assume as per convenience and Model Fit Assume as per convenience and Model Fit dictions: On LCD Table II Constraints Labour Manufacturing Space Raw Materials Production Time Units No of Labors Square Meters Kilograms Minutes Identify the feasible region and construct the graph using the graphical method.

very time you conduct a hypothesis test, there are four possible outcomes of your decision to reject or not reject the null hypothesis: (1) You don’t reject the null hypothesis when it is true, (2) you reject the null hypothesis when it is true, (3) you don’t reject the null hypothesis when it is false, and (4) you reject the null hypothesis when it is false. Consider the following analogy: You are an airport security screener. For every passenger who passes through your security checkpoint, you must decide whether to select the passenger for further screening based on your assessment of whether he or she is carrying a weapon. Suppose your null hypothesis is that the passenger has a weapon. As in hypothesis testing, there are four possible outcomes of your decision: (1) You select the passenger for further inspection when the passenger has a weapon, (2) you allow the passenger to board her flight when the passenger has a weapon, (3) you select the passenger for further inspection when…
