Concept explainers
To find: the number of questions from each section the students needs to attempt to get higher score; if not possible state whether the problem is infeasible, unbounded or has alternate optimal solutions.
Answer to Problem 15E
Section I: 10 questions
Section II: 2 questions
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Let
Maximum Marks of section I =
Maximum Marks of section II =
Time constraint for attempting section I =
Time constraint for attempting section II =
Total time = 90 mins
Minimum question to be attempted from the section II = 2
Calculation:
Let
The inequalities derived from the given information are as follows:
Use a graphing calculator to plot the inequalities as shown below.
The vertices are
Thus, the number of questions the student needs to attempt from section I and section II to get higher score are 10 and 2 respectively.
