At the beginning of the first day (day 1) after grape harvesting is completed, a grape grower has 8000 kg of grapes in storage. On day n, for n = 1, 2, . . . ,the grape grower sells 250n/(n + 1) kg of the grapes at the local market at the priceof $2.50 per kg. He leaves the rest of the grapes in storage where each day they dryout a little so that their weight decreases by 3%. Let wn be the weight (in kg) ofthe stored grapes at the beginning of day n for n ≥ 1 (before he takes any to themarket).(a) Find the value of wn for n = 2.(b) Find a recursive definition for wn. (You may find it helpful to draw a timeline.)(c) Let rn be the total revenue (in dollars) earned from the stored grapes from thebeginning of day 1 up to the beginning of day n for n ≥ 1. Find a recursiveformula for rn.(d) Write a MATLAB program to compute wn and rn for n = 1, 2, . . . , num wherenum is entered by the user, and display the values in three columns: n, wn, rnwith appropriate headings.Run the program for num =…

A ski rental agency has n pairs of skis, where the height of the the ith pair of skis is si . There are n skiers who wish to rent skis, where the height of the ith skier is hi. Ideally, each skier should obtain a pair of skis whose height matches her/his own height as closely as possible. We would like to assign skis to skiers so that the sum of the absolute differences of the heights of each skier and her/his skis is minimized. Design a greedy algorithm for the problem. Prove the correctness of your algorithm. (Hint: Start with two skis and two skiers. How would you match them? Continue to three skis and three skiers, and identify a strategy.)

You are given some tasks of size xK, yK and zK respectively and there are at most 9 tasks each. Determine the best that you could achieve if you are to fill up a hole of size SK, for the following values of x, y, z and S, by maximizing the space used (up to S), i.e. minimizing the used space, if any. Show how many tasks of size x, how many tasks of size y and how many tasks of size z are used in each of the three cases. (g) Now if we relax the requirement so that there are no upper limits on the number of tasks for each type, determine the maximal space usage and the task mix. (h) If we tighten the requirement so that there are still at most 9 tasks of each size, but we also require that each type of tasks must be used at least once, determine maximal space usage and the task mix. Case 1 2 3 X 22 26 28 y 33 43 65 50 77 74 S 488 556 777 You could complete the following table. Fill in the number of tasks inside the brackets and the corresponding maximal usage.
