Suppose that in a product-mix problem 𝒙𝟏, 𝒙𝟐 and 𝑥3 indicate the units of products 1, 2 and 3, respectively, and the Linear Programming  formulation is:                     

Maximize Z = 20x1 + 10x2 + 15x3   Subject to:   3x1 + 2x2 + 5x3 ≤ 55    2x1 + x2 + x3 ≤ 26    x1 + x2 + 3x3 ≤ 30    5x1 + 2x2 + 4x3 ≤ 57    x1 , x2 , x3 ≥ 0  

a) Use solver to find optimal solution and sensitivity report.         b) Management have asked you to determine the optimal solution. Write your answer in a form of a report to be submitted to the management.     c) Advice the management about objective function value corresponding to your answer in (b).

At a one man barber shop, customers arrive according to poison distribution with a

mean arrival rate of 5 per hour and hair cutting time was exponentially distributed

with an average hair cutting time was exponentially distributed with an average hair

cut taking 19 minutes. It is assumed that because of excellent reputation, customers

were always willing to wait. Calculate the following

a. Average number of customers in the shop and average numbers waiting for a hair

cut

b .Percentage of time arrival can walk in right without having to wait

c. The percentage of customers who have to wait before getting into the barber’s chair

Find an optimal solution for maximising the total revenue.

1)    Complete the regularization of the following primal problem

 

            Min Z = 15x1  +  15x2

 

               s.t       3x1 + 2x> 2

                          7x1 + 2x= 6

                          5x1 + 7x< 4

                           x1 ,  x> 0


Player A and B play a game in which each has three coins, a 5p, 10p and a 20p. Each selects a coin without the knowledge of the other’s choice. If the sum of the coins is an odd amount, then A wins B’s coin. But, if the sum is even, then B wins A’s coin. Find the best strategy for each player and the values of the game.

For model:

3x1+2x2+7x3+5x4+2x5>= 13000

2x2+x4+2x5+3x6>=20000

F(c)=0,2x1+0,1x2+0,2x3+0,3x4+0,4x5+0x6

Build a dual model, solve using the graphical method


Solve the following LPP using dual simplex method: Max Z= -3x1- x2,

Subject to: x1+x2 ≥ 1, 2x1+3x2 ≥ 2, x1,x2 ≥ 0.
