Problema 1 (extraído del libro de texto, modificado problema 2, página 55)
Farmer Jones must determine how many acres of corn and wheat to plant this year. An acre of wheat yields 25 bushels of wheat and requires 10 hours of labor per week. An acre of corn yields 10 bushels of corn and requires 4 hours of labor per week. All wheat can be sold at $4 a bushel, and all corn can be sold at $3 a bushel. Seven acres of land and 40 hours per week of labor are available. Government regulations require that at least 30 bushels of corn be produced during the current year. Let x1 = number of acres of corn planted, and x2= number of acres of wheat planted. a. Using these decision variables formulate an LP whose solution will tell Farmer Jones how to maximize the total revenue from wheat and corn. b. Is (x1 = 2, x2 = 3) in the feasible region? c. Is (x1 = 4, x2 = 3) in the feasible region? d. Is (x1 = 2, x2 = _1) in the feasible region? e. Is (x1 = 3, x2 =2) in the feasible region?

Problema 2 (extraído del libro de texto, problema 8, página 68)
Graphically find all optimal solutions to the following LP:

Min z = x1 - x2 s.t. x1 + x2 ≤ 6 x1 - x2 ≥ 0 x2 - x1 ≥ 3 x1, x2 ≥ 0.
Problema 3 (extraído del libro de texto, problema 10, página 115)
Carco has a $150,000 advertising budget. To increase automobile sales, the firm is considering advertising in newspapers and on television. The more Carco uses a particular medium, the less effective is each additional ad. Table 50 shows the number of new customers reached by each ad. Each newspaper ad costs $1,000, and each television ad costs $10,000. At most, 30 newspaper ads and 15 television ads can be placed. How can Carco maximize the number of new customers created by advertising?

Problema 4 (extraído del libro de texto, problema 17, página 115)
Furnco manufactures tables and chairs. Each table and chair must be made entirely out of oak or entirely out of pine. A total of 150

    First observation was the demand curve with the current rental rate and the quantity demanded. The second observation was the change in the quantity demanded and the vacancy rate when there is a particular rental rate. The decision to be made was the monthly rental rate for two-bedroom rental apartments on temporary leases. The Property Manager needed to bring the vacancy rate from 28 percent to 15 percent and to maximize the revenue. To start, the vacancy rate was at 40 percent, revenue was 1.56 (in millions), surplus 800, quantity demanded 1,200 and rental rate $1,300. The vacancy rate down to 15 percent, the following changed: revenue was 1.79 (in millions), surplus 300, quantity demanded 1,700 and rental rate $1,050. Although the appropriate rental rate was selected to reduce the vacancy rate, the revenue was not maximized. In the end the revenue could have been increased by lowering both the rental and the vacancy…

    The objective of this analysis is to determine what blend of the four chemicals will allow Quain to minimize the cost of a 50-lb bag of the fertilizer. To do this we have used Linear Programming (LP) – a technique specifically designed to help managers make decisions relative to the allocation of resources. In this case, C-30 = , C-92 = , D-21 = , and E-11 = . The constraints for this case were translated into linear equations (i.e. inequalities) to mathematically express their meaning. The first constraint that C-11 must constitute for at least 15% of the blend can be expressed as: . The second constraint that C-92 and C-30 must together constitute at least 45% of the blend can be expressed as: . The third constraint that D-21 and C-92 can together constitute no more than 30% of the blend can be expressed as: . Lastly, the fourth constraint is that Quain-Grow is packaged and sold in 50-lb bags can be expressed as: . These equations were obtained and entered into a POM LP as a minimizing function. The objective function of this case was calculated and expressed as . The following table is the input…
