Question 1

One difference between the stepping-stone method compared to the Northwest-corner and intuitive method is that
◦ the stepping-stone method ALWAYS finds a lower-cost solution.
◦ the Northwest-corner and intuitive method guarantees sub-optimal solutions.
◦ the stepping-stone method ignores costs.
◦ the stepping-stone method never finds a feasible solution.
◦ the stepping-stone method guarantees an optimal solution.

Question 2

A transportation problem has improvement indices of 5, 4, 0, and -3. Which of the following is always true?
◦ The transportation matrix has four empty squares.
◦ The transportation model is at its ideal solution.
◦ The total cost saved by changing one unit on the route with an improvement index of 5 would be $5.
◦ The transportation model is at a feasible solution.
◦ The transportation model is at a feasible solution and the transportation matrix has four empty squares

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
