1 Exam Name Use the indicated region of feasible solutions to find the maximum and minimum values of the given objective function. 1) z = 12x - 22y y (0, 6) (1.2, 5) Solve the 3) The Acme Class Ring Company designs and sells two types of rings: the VIP and the SST. They can produce up to 24 rings each day using up to 60 total man-hours of labor. It takes 3 man-hours to make one VIP ring and 2 man-hours to make one SST ring. How many of each type of ring should be made daily to maximize the company's profit, if the profit on a VIP ring is $30 and on an SST ring is $40? (5, 0) Use graphical methods to solve the linear programming 2) Maximize z = 8x + 12y subject to: 40x + 80y x + 8y 72 x 0 y 0 y x x 4) Zach is planning to invest up to $50,000 in corporate and municipal bonds. The least he will invest in corporate bonds is $6000 and he does not want to invest more than $29,000 in corporate bonds. He also does not want to invest more than $28,174 in municipal bonds. The interest is 8.5% on corporate bonds and 6.8% on municipal bonds. This is simple interest for one year. What is the maximum value of his investment after one year? 5) An airline with two types of airplanes, P1 and P2, has contracted with a tour group to provide transportation for a minimum of 400 first class, 900 tourist class, and 1500 economy class passengers. For a certain trip, airplane P1 costs $10,000 to operate and can accomodate 20 first class, 50 tourist class, and 110 economy class passengers. Airplane P2 costs $8500 to operate and can accomodate 18 first class, 30 tourist class, and 44 economy class passengers. How many of each type of airplane should be used in order to minimize the operating cost? Pivot once about the circled element in the simplex tableau, and read the solution from the result. 6) 1
