Question 1

The objective of a linear programming problem is to maximize 1.50A + 1.50B, subject to 3A + 2B ≤ 600, 2A + 4B ≤ 600, and 1A + 3B ≤ 420.

a. Plot the constraints on the grid below
b. Identify the feasible region and its corner points. Show your work.
c. What is the optimal product mix for this problem?



Question 2

The property manager of a city government issues chairs, desks, and other office furniture to city buildings from a centralized distribution centre. Like most government agencies, it operates to minimize its costs of operations. In this distribution centre, there are two types of standard office chairs, Model A and Model B. Model A is considerably heavier than Model B, and costs $20 per chair to transport to any city building; each model B costs $14 to transport. The distribution centre has on hand 400 chairs—200 each of A and B.

The requirements for shipments to each of the city's buildings are as follows:
Building 1 needs at least 100 of A
Building 2 needs at least 150 of B.
Building 3 needs at least 100 chairs, but they can be of either type, mixed.
Building 4 needs 40 chairs, but at least as many B as A.

Write out the objective function and the constraints for this problem. (Hint: there are eight variables—chairs for building 1 cannot be used to satisfy the demands for another building).

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
