The following is a linear programming formulation of a labor planning problem. There are four overlapping shifts, and management must decide how many employees to schedule to start work on each shift. The objective is to minimize the total number of employees required while the constraints stipulate how many employees are required at each time of day. The variables X1 - X4 represent the number of employees starting work on each shift (shift 1 through shift 4).

MIN X1 + X2 + X3 + X4

s.t. X1 + X4 ≥ 12 ........(on duty during shift 1)
X1 + X2 ≥ 15 ........(on duty during shift 2)
X2 + X3 ≥ 16 ........(on duty during shift 3)
X3 + X4 ≥ 14 ........(on duty during shift 4)
X1, X2, X3, and X4 ≥ 0

Given the optimal solution: X1* = 13, X2* = 2, X3* = 14, X4* = 0, how many workers would be assigned to shift 2?

a. 13
b. 12
c. 14
d. 15
e. 2

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

d. 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Putting the values in the shift 2 function

X1 + X2 ≥ 15

where x1=  13, and x2=2

13+12≥ 15

15≥ 15

At least 15 workers must be assigned to the shift 2.

The LP model questions require that the constraints are satisfied.

The constraint for the shift 2 is that the  number of workers must be equal or greater than 15

This can be solved using other constraint functions e.g

Putting  X4= 0 in

X1 + X4 ≥ 12

gives

X1 ≥ 12

Now Putting the value X1 ≥ 12  in shift 2 constraint

X1 + X2 ≥ 15

12+ 2≥ 15

14 ≥ 15

this does not satisfy the condition so this is wrong.

Now from

X2 + X3 ≥ 16

Putting X3= 14

X2 + 14 ≥ 16

gives

X2  ≥ 2

Putting these in the shift 2

X1 + X2 ≥ 15

13+2 ≥ 15

15 ≥ 15

Which gives the same result as above.

What is the volume of a cube that has a side of 4 units?

Answers

Answer: 64units³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube will be gotten by multiplying the value of its side thrice. This means that for example if the cube has a side of xcm, the volume will be:

= x × x × x

= x³

In this case, since the cube has a side of 4 units, the volume will be:

Volume of cube = 4³

Volume of cube = 4 × 4 × 4 = 64unit³

Two gamblers, call them Gambler A and Gambler B flip a coin repeatedly. The coin is unfair and comes up heads 2/3 of the time. Gambler A wins one dollar from Gambler B, when a head is tossed. Conversely Gambler B wins one dollar from Gambler A when a tail is tossed. The coin tosses are independent. The game ends when one of the gamblers runs out of money. There are 5 dollars in the pot. Determine the probability that Gambler A wins the game if he starts with I dollars. Here I

Answers

Answer:

≈ 0.52

Step-by-step explanation:

P( head ) = 2/3 , P( tail ) = 1/3

when a head is tossed ; Gambler A wins $1

when a tail is tossed : Gambler B wins $1

Determine the P( Gambler A wins the game ) if he starts with I dollars

Assuming I = $1

n = 5

p ( head ) = P( winning ) = 0.66

p( losing ) = 0.33

applying the conditional probability in Markov which is ;

Pₓ = pPₓ₊₁ + (1 - p) Pₓ₋₁

P( 1) = 0.66P₂ + 0.33P₀

resolving the above using with Markov probability

P( 1 ) = 0.51613

hence the probability of Gambler A winning the game if he starts with $1

≈ 0.52

Sumemos estos terminos:

6 ft = 6 ft

Since 6ft is equal to 6ft...

It is 2 1/4 ft long

we substitute 7/8 ft for x

since 2 1/4 ft is equal ...

Yellow picture

2 3/8 ft - 2 3/8 ft + x = 3 1/4 ft - 2 3/8 ft

x = 3 1/4 ft - 2 3/8 ft

x = 7/8 ft

Check

x = 7/8 ft

2 3/8 ft + 7/8 ft = 3 1/4 ft

3 3/8 ft - 3 3/8 ft + x = 4 1/4 ft - 3 3/8 ft

x= 4 1/4 ft - 3 3/8 ft

x = 7/8 ft

check

x = 7/8 ft

3 3/8 ft + 7/8 ft = 4 1/4 ft

4 3/8 ft - 4 3/8 ft + x = 5 1/4 ft - 4 3/8 ft

c. Center: (-15, -9) Radius: 5
d. Center: (15,9) Radius: 25

Answers

Answer:

a. Center: (-15, 9), Radius: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a circle:

The equation of a circle of center [tex](x_0, y_0)[/tex] and radius r is given by:

[tex](x - x_0)^2 + (y - y_0)^2 = r^2[/tex]

In this question, we have that:

[tex](x + 15)^2 + (y - 9)^2 = 25[/tex]

Comparing both equations:

[tex]x - x_0 = x + 15[/tex]

[tex]x_0 = -15[/tex]

And

[tex]y - y_0 = y - 9[/tex]

[tex]y_0 = 9[/tex]

The center is [tex](-15,9)[/tex].

For the radius:

[tex]r^2 = 25[/tex]

[tex]r = \sqrt{25} = 5[/tex]

Write an explicit formula an, the nth term of the sequence 27,-3,-33,-63

Answers

Answer:

The nth term is 27 - 30(n-1) or can be simplified to 57 - 30n.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an arithmetic sequence (ie. each term equals the previous term with a constant value added (or subtracted from it)

T1 = 27

T2 = -3 = T1 - 30 = 27 - 30

T3 = -33 = T2 -30 = 27 -30 - 30=27-30X(2)

T4= -63 = T3 - 30 =27-30X(2)-30=27-30X(3)

In general, the nth term of this sequence:

Answers

Answer: D) 144 square cm

========================================================

Explanation:

A square has all four sides that are the same length. So all four sides are 12 cm

area = side*side = 12*12 = 144 cm^2

Or you could say

area = (side)^2 = (12)^2 = 144 cm^2

Squaring a number is the same as multiplying it by itself. Hence the name "square" refers to a side length pairing up with its corresponding area value.

---------

Side note: The perimeter is 4*(side) = 4*12 = 48 cm. It's possible that choice B is put in there as a trick answer.

Answers

Answer:

I will do 1 2 3 and 5 for you:

Since a cube has a given length of 5, we know that all sides will be the same therefore your lengths will be the same.

There are 6 sides of a cube so,

5 x 5 = 25 area of one flat surface.

Now 25(an area of one flat surface) x 6(flat surfaces) = 150 cm for question 1

We need to find area of the two circles:

3(given radius)^2(radius being squared) x 3.14(pi)

3 x 3 = 9

9(after radius being squared) x 3.14(pi) = 28.26(area of one circle)

28.26 x 2 = 56.52 (area of 2 circles)

Now we need to find the round surface, but first we need to find circumference:

2 x 3.14 x 3 = 18.84

18.84(circumference) x 5(height) = 94.2 (area of round surface)

Now lets add all the given areas to find surface area:

56.52 + 94.2 = 150.72 cm^2 is your answer for question 2

2 x 4 = 8

8 x 2 = 16

4 x 5 = 20

20 x 2 = 40

2 x 5 = 10

10 x 2 = 20

Add all given areas:

16 + 40 + 20 = 76 cm^2 is your answer for question 3

452.16 cm^2

4 x 3.14 x 6^2

4 x 3.14 x 36 = 452.16 cm^2 is your answer for question 4

8 x 4 = 32, 32 divided by 2 = 16

since there are 4 sides,

4 x 16 = 64

Don't forget the bottom!

4x 4 = 16

Lets add the given areas:

64 + 16 = 80 for question 5
