Answer to Question 1

c
RATIONALE: The additivity assumption means that the value of the objective function and the total resources used can be found by summing the objective function contribution and the resources used for all decision variables.

Answer to Question 2

dependent
RATIONALE: The sample space of the first event is 12 balls, but the sample space of the second event is now 11 balls (because the first ball is not replaced). Therefore, the events are dependent.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
