Complete solution thanks

Transcribed Image Text:PROBLEM #1
1. A municipal sold waste site for a city must be located
at Site A or Site B. After sorting, some of the solid
refuse will be transported to an electric power plant
where it will be used as fuel. Data for the hauling of
refuse from each site to the power plant are shown:
Cost Factor
Site A
Site B
5 miles
$5,000
$2.50/yd3-mile
Average hauling distance
4.2 miles
$100,000
$2.50/yd3-mile
Annual rental fee
Hauling expense

Transcribed Image Text:PROBLEM #1 continued
• If the power plant will pay $10.00 per cubic yard of
sorted solid waste delivered to the plant, where
should the solid waste site be located? Use the city's
viewpoint and assume that 200,000 cubic yards of
refuse will be hauled to the plant for one year only.

- Thank you for your great effort but please i need solution by hand written and number of table at step by step thank youarrow_forwardSolution 1: Ergonomic Assessment and Improvement. An ergonomic assessment of Paula's workstation could identify areas where adjustments could be made to reduce strain on her wrists. This could include adjusting the height of the workstation, providing wrist supports, or changing the design of the tools she uses. The strength of this solution is that it directly addresses the physical strain causing Paula's discomfort. However, the weakness is that it may require investment in new equipment or tools, and the effectiveness will depend on the specific changes made. Solution 2: Job Rotation. Paula could be rotated between different tasks more frequently, reducing the amount of time she spends on tasks that strain her wrists. This could also include training other workers to perform the welding and gaging operations, allowing for more flexibility in task assignments. The strength of this solution is that it reduces the repetitive strain on Paula's wrists. The weakness is that it requires…arrow_forwardPaula has worked for Brindle Corporation for 3 years. During this time, she has worked as a machine operator/cell leader in various work cells. Recently, the plant went to mandatory 12-hour shifts and plans to remain on this schedule for several months. Paula’s present work cell is manufacturing 3-inch diameter exhaust tubes that are made from stainless steel. These tubes get a hole punched in them, a flange welded on, and burrs ground off. The pipe then gets placed into a gage to check that it was made correctly. (The tubes weigh about six pounds.) Paula has been performing the welding operation. She leans into the machine and loads the part into a fixture then positions the flange. Both pieces are clamped (using hand clamps) into position and the machine is cycled by depressing two palm buttons. The gaging operation requires placing the finished part into the gage and clamping it (using hand clamps) into place. A pin is depressed to verify the position of the hole and a…arrow_forward
