Solution Summary: The author calculates the pivot element, identify the entering and exiting variables, and execute one pivot operation. The pivot column contains most negative indicator in the last row of the simplex tableaux.
1. Suppose that at some initial point in time 100,000 people live in Auckland city and 25,000 people live in
its suburbs. After conducting a research, the Regional Planning Commission determines that the model
governing people's movement between Auckland and its suburbs is given by the equations:
an+1 = 0.95a, + 0.03s
Sn+1 = 0.05a, +0.97sn
where an, is the number of people in Auckland and s, is the number of people in the suburbs.
(a) Using column vectors, write the transition matrix A.
(b) Assuming that the total population remains constant, by using Xn+1 = Ax, to compute the first five
state vectors, find the population of Auckland city and its suburbs over a period of five years.
(e) Write x₁, as a linear combination of the eigenvectors of A and use it to predict the first five state
vectors. Confirm that your answers are the same as in Question (1b).
(d) What does the model predict in the long term.
Note: we have used Xn to denote the vector

Mr. Adams wants to rent a beachfront condominium. Unit 1 costs $1,200 for the week plus a cleaning fee of $50 per day. Unit 2 costs $1,450 for the week with no cleaning
fee.
What is an appropriate model to use to determine at which number of days both units cost the same amount for the week?
a table with two columns, one showing the cost of Unit 1 starting at $1,200 and increasing $50 every row, and the other showing the cost of Unit 2 starting at
$1,450 and increasing $50 each row
a graph with the number of days for the week on the x-axis and the cost on the y-axis, showing the cost of Unit 1 starting at $50 and increasing $1,200 each
day, and the cost of Unit 2 starting at $0 and increasing $1,450 each day
