for the Grant Center assumes a linear relationship between the number of student visitors and the daily operating cost of the center. Some sample (number of students‚ operating cost) values are given in the table below. Number of Students 0 10 20 40 Daily Operating Cost $450 $600 $750 $1‚050 a. Use the given data to write an equation showing how operating cost‚ C‚ depends on the number of students‚ x. Explain or show how you found the equation. For parts (b)–(d)‚ write equations or inequalities

decision time Decision making is an important aspect of the Paper F5 syllabus‚ and questions on this topic will be common. The range of possible questions is considerable‚ but this article will focus on only one: linear programming. The ideas presented in this article are based on a simple example. Suppose a profit-seeking firm has two constraints: labour‚ limited to 16‚000 hours‚ and materials‚ limited to 15‚000kg. The firm manufactures and sells two products‚ X and Y. To make X‚ the firm uses

100 Topic : “Use of dual linear programming problem in decision making.” Applications of Linear Programming Linear programming has been applied to a wide variety of constrained optimization problems. Some of these are: Optimal process selection Most products can be manufactured by using a number of processes‚ each requiring a different technology and combination of inputs. Given input prices and the quantity of the commodity that the firm wants to produce‚ linear programming can be used

In the early 1900’s both Booker T. Washington and W.E.B Du Bois presented a plan for racial justice. While the two plans fought for the same people‚ their approach‚ ideologies‚ and goals differed. Both men were brave to speak out‚ but overall Du Bois created a plan that was radical and one that represented the African American community well. Du Bois most compelling tool used in his plan for racial justice lies in his word choices. The way he uses metaphors like “the veil” and “double consciousness”

Attack Known plaintext attack Security Key size Diffusion and Confusion Conclusion References Hill Cipher Introduction Invented by Lester S. Hill in 1929‚ the Hill cipher is a polygraphic substitution cipher based on linear algebra. Hill used matrices and matrix multiplication to mix up the plaintext. To counter charges that his system was too complicated for day to day use‚ Hill constructed a cipher machine for his system using a series of geared wheels and chains

Forecasting Forecast can help managers by reducing some of the uncertainty‚ thereby enabling them to develop more meaningful plans than they might otherwise. A forecast is a statement about the future. Features common to all forecasts 1. The same underlying causal system that existed in the past will continue to exist in the future. 2. Forecasts are rarely perfect; actual results usually differ from predicted values. 3. Forecasts for groups of items tend to be more accurate than forecasts
