Question
Chapter B, Problem 30P
Summary Introduction
To solve: The following linear programming problem graphically.
Introduction:
Linear programming:
It is a linear optimization technique followed to develop the best outcome for the linear programming problem. The outcome might be to maximize profit, minimize cost, or to determine the optimal product mix. The outcome will take the constraints present in achieving the solution into consideration.

Suppose the following costs for a 10-hour round-trip flight apply to the time frame and expenses of an unscheduled 5-hour charter flight from Baltimore to Las Vegas (and return the next day) on a seven-year-old Boeing 737–800 with 120 occupied seats. Some costs listed in the table have been aggregated up to the flight level from a seat-level decision where they are incurred. Others have been allocated down to the flight level from an entry/exit or maintain-ownership company-level decision. Still other costs vary with the go/no go flight-level decision itself. Your job is to analyze each cost item and figure out the “behavior of cost”—that is, with which decision each cost varies.
Fuel and landing fees =$5,200
Quarterly airframe maintenance re: FAA certificate = $1,000
Unscheduled engine maintenance per 10 flight hours =$1,200
Pro rata time depreciation for seventh year of airframe = $7,200
Flight pay for pilots per round-trip flight = $4,200
Long-term hangar facility lease = $6,600…
Take your time to solve this problems. If possible then please solve both the problem.

- The Canadian government has built a large grain-shipping port at Churchill, Manitoba, on the Hudson Bay. Grain grown in southern Manitoba is carried by rail to Churchill during the open-water shipping season. Unfortunately the port is open only 50 days per year during July and August. This leads to some critical crew staffing decisions by management. The port has the capacity to load up to 7 ships simultaneously, provided that each loading bay has an assigned crew. The remote location and short shipping season results in a very high labor cost for each crew assigned, and management would like to minimize the number of crews. Ships arrive in a random pattern that can be modeled using the Poisson probability model. If a ship arrives and all available loading bays are filled, the ship will be delayed, resulting in a large cost that must be paid to the owner of the ship. This penalty was negotiated to encourage ship owners to send their ships to Churchill.Results of an initial analysis…arrow_forwardDefine feasible solution spacearrow_forwardA department is preparing a trip for 80 volunteers to an area affected by the typhoon.

He must replace a worn-out copy machine that is used for black- and-white copying. He is considering two machines, and each of these has a monthly lease cost plus a cost for each page that is copied. Machine 1 has a monthly lease cost of $639, and there is a cost of $0.030 per page copied. Machine 2 has a monthly lease cost of $747, and there is a cost of $0.045 per page copied.
