Transcribed Image Text:.Slim-Down Manufacturing makes a line of nutritionally complete, weight-red
ction beverages. One of their products is a strawberry shake which is designe
to be a complete meal. The strawberry shake consists of several ingredients.
ome information about each of these ingredients is given below. Take the ing
edient of strawberry flavoring for example, the amount of calories from fat of
ach unit (tbsp) of strawberry flavoring is 1, the amount of total calories from
ach unit of strawberry flavoring is 50, similarly, the amount of vitamin content
nd thickeners is 20mg and 3mg per tbsp. The cost of each tbsp of strawberry
avoring is 10 dollars.

he nutritional requirements are as follows. There must be at least 20 milligra
s (mg) of vitamin content. For taste reasons, there must be at least 2 tablesp
ons (tbsp) of strawberry flavoring for each tablespoon of artificial sweetener.
o maintain proper thickness, there must be exactly 24 mg of thickeners in the
everage. Finally, the beverage must total between 300 and 400 calories (inclu
ve), and no more than 20 percent of the total calories should come from fat.
lanagement would like to select the quantity of each ingredient for the bevera
e which would minimize cost while meeting the above requirements.

- Ross White recently opened a landscaping division , that advises home owners and businesses on landscaping and lawn maintenance. The operations manager, Ms. Priya Johnson, is trying to determine the amount of fertilizer that should be applied to a particular lawn in a residential area in San Juan. Ms. Johnson’s analysis has determined that the lawn needs at least 60kg of Nitrogen, 24kg of Phosphorous compounds and 40kg of Potassium compounds for the current season. After checking nearby home and garden centres, Ms. Johnson has found that one of the suppliers is currently having a sale on packaged fertilizer. One type on sale called Xynis, is a 20-5-20 mixture, containing 20% Nitrogen, 5% phosphorous compounds and 20% potassium compounds. It sells at $4 for a 20kg bag. The other type called Yield-all is a 10-10-5 mixture (10% Nitrogen, 10% phosphorous compounds and 5% potassium compounds) selling for $5 for a 40kg bag. Ms. Johnson would like to know how many bags of each type she…arrow_forwardThe US Department of Agriculture collected nutrient data on various types of cheeses.

The batteries for these radios last for an average of 55 hours. The purchasing manager for this company receives a brochure in the mail that advertises a new brand of batteries. This new brand of batteries is cheaper than the brand that the company currently uses. However, the purchasing manager is concerned that the cheaper batteries may have a shorter average battery life than the current brand. (Note: The number of hours that batteries last is called their battery life.) The pricing manager installs 40 randomly selected batteries of the cheaper brand in the company's walkie-talkie radios. He finds that the mean battery life for the sample is 52 hours, with a standard deviation of 10 hours. He wants to perform a statistical test at the 1% level of significance to determine whether the cheaper batteries have a shorter average battery life span than the average life span of the brand of batteries the…arrow_forward
