Of the following three sets of linear equations, identify the set(s) that you could not solve using an iterative method such as Gauss-Seidel. Show using any number of iterations that is necessary that your solution does not converge. Clearly state your convergence criteria (how you know it is not converging).

In a hybrid-engine vehicle, energy from battery (“b" in Amperes) and from 95 octane unleaded gasoline
("g" in liters) are used intermittently to maximize the distance to be travelled (mileage) between fill-
ups and charge-ups. If mileage (M) in kilometers is found out to be:
M= 90 b+ 100 g - 3 b' - 5 g? - 2 b g
find the values of “b" and “g" that will maximize mileage M, find the maximum mileage and prove that
this is a maximum.
Assume that a developer is planning to construct a small neighborhood shopping strip of 10,000 sq.
ft in county 3 (figure below). There are two existing centers, A and B, in counties 1 and 2,
respectively. The distance between the counties is the same, 20 minutes. As in the example in the
book, assume that the distance increases by 1 for every 5 minutes. Thus, T12 = T13 = T23 = 4. It takes
a resident living in a county less than 5 minutes to reach a center in the same county, that is, T11 =
T22 T33 = 1. The parameter b in the book formula 3.4 is equal to 2.
County 1
Center A
Size: 10,000 sf
County 3
Project: Construct
Center C
Size: 10,000 sf
County 2
Center B
Size: 15,000 sf
1) What is the probability that a resident of county 1 shops at the new center in county 3?
The AMA makes electric bike investment. One out of every 50 electric bike is faulty, but AMA doesn't know which ones are faulty until a buyer complains. Suppose AMA makes a 150 Php profit on the sale of any working electric bikes, but suffers a loss of 4000 Php for every faulty gadget because they have to repair the unit. Check whether AMA can expect a profit in the long term.

To test this theory, a series of stress tests were performed on solid bricks arranged in triplets and joined with mortar. The precompression stress was varied for each triplet and the ultimate shear load just before failure (called the shear strength) was recorded. The stress results for n = 7 resulted in a Coefficient of Determination of 0.7589. Given that r 2_ 0.7589, give a practical interpretation of r2, the coefficient of determination for the least squares model. In repeated sampling, approximately 75.89% of all similarly constructed regression lines will accurately predict shear strength. We expect about 75.89% of the observed shear strength values to lie on the least squares line. We expect to predict the shear strength of a triplet test to within about 0.7589 tons of its true value. About 75.89% of the total…arrow_forward

The cart starts at rest and travels a distance s down the plane. The first student estimates the acceleration by measuring the instantaneous velocity v just as the cart has traveled s meters, and uses the formula a = v²/2s. The second student estimates the acceleration by measuring the time, in seconds, that the cart takes to travel s meters, and uses the formula a = 2s/t. Assume that s = 1 m, and that there is negligible uncertainty in s. Assume that v = 3.2 + 0.1 m/s and that t = 0.63 + 0.01 s. Assume that the measurements of v and t are independent.

- The minimum amount of time an item requires to pass through a process from beginning to end (i.e., it never waits for other items) is 124 minutes. Wages average $40 per hour. There are 5 workers in the system and the worker at the slowest station needs 32 minutes to complete his work. What is the direct labor cost ($/item)?

She has determined that for every hour she works at Job I, she needs 2 hours of preparation time, and for every hour she works at Job II, she needs one hour of preparation time, and she cannot spend more than 16 hours for preparation. Let x = The number of hours per week Niki will work at Job I. and x = The number of hours per week Niki will work at Job II. If she makes $40 an hour at Job I, and $30 an hour at Job II, what are the linear constraints to maximize her income?arrow_forwardThe marching band at a local high school is selling candy bars. The profits will go toward the purchase of new marching band uniforms. They are interested in knowing what price they should charge to obtain the maximum profit. The candy bars are donated by a local retailer so they know that if they charge $0 they will make $0 profit. They also collect data from other marching bands who have sold candy bars in the past.
