Change this LP problem (e.g., money, time, or number of batches), so that it has at least two whole number solutions: A bakery makes both chocolate cakes and almond cookies. Each batch of cakes requires 2hours in the oven and 3hours into decorating room. Each batch of cookies requires 1hour and 30 minutes in the oven and 30 minutes into the decorating room. The oven is available no more than 15hours per day, and the decorating room can be used no more than 13hours per day. The Daily profit from production of one batch of cakes is $50 and one batch of cookies is $15. How Many batches of cakes and cookies should be produced daily in order to maximize bakery's profit?

The Fore and Aft Marina is located on the Ohio River near Madison, Indiana. Fore and Aft currently operates a docking facility where only one boat at a time can stop for gas and servicing. The manager of the Fore and Aft Marina wants to investigate the possibility of enlarging the docking facility so that two boats can stop for gas and servicing simultaneously. Assume that the arrival rate is 3 boats per hour and that the service rate for each server is 9 boats per hour. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) (a) What is the probability that the boat dock will be idle? (b) What is the average number of boats that will be waiting for service? (c) What is the average time (in hours) a boat will spend waiting for service? h (d) What is the average time (in hours) a boat will spend at the dock? h (e) If customers expect to be able to be in and out of the marina within 10 minutes on average, does this system provide acceptable service? ---Select--- V since the average time a boat will…
