The Pinewood Furniture Company produces chairs and tables from two resources: labor and wood. The company has 120 hours of labor and 100 board-ft. of wood available each day. Demand for table is limited to 8 per day. Each chair requires 3 hours of labor and 4 board-ft. of wood, whereas a table requires 20 hours of labor and 9 board-ft. of wood. The profit derived from each chair is $100 and from each table is $500. The company wants to determine the number of chairs and tables to produce each day in order to maximize profit. The correct linear programming model formulation of this problem is: Answers: Max Z = 120x1 + 100x2 Subject to: 3x1 + 4x2 ≤ 100 20x1 + 9x2 ≤ 500 x2 ≤ 8 x1, x2 ≥ 0 Max Z = 100x1 + 500x2 Subject to: 3x1 + 4x2 ≤ 120 20x1 + 9x2 ≤ 100 x2 ≤ 8 x1, x2 ≥ 0 Max Z = 100x1 + 500x2 Subject to: 3x1 + 20x2 ≤ 120 4x1 + 9x2 ≤ 100 x2 ≤ 8 x1, x2 ≥ 0 Max Z = 100x1 + 500x2 Subject to: 9x1 + 4x2 ≤ 120 20x1 + 3x2 ≤ 100 x1 ≤ 8 x1, x2 ≥ 0 none of the above

Selected Answer: Max Z = 100x1 + 500x2 Subject to: 3x1 + 20x2 ≤ 120 4x1 + 9x2 ≤ 100 x2 ≤ 8 x1, x2 ≥ 0

he break-even point is the volume that the profit is positive (greater than zero Answers: True False

False

Consider the following linear programming problem: Max Z = $15x + $20y Subject to: 8x + 5y ≤ 40 0.4x + y ≥ 4 x, y ≥ 0 Considering that the values for x and y that will maximize revenue are respectively x = 0 and y = 8, what is the amount of slack/surplus associated with the first constraint - in the optimal point? Answers: 4 8 0 6 None of the above

Selected Answer: 0

Consider the following linear programming problem: Max Z = 4x1 + 2x2 Subject to: x1 4 x2 2 x1, x2 ≥ 0 The Z obtained from the best combination of x2 and x1 is: Answers: 4 20 16 25 None of the above

Selected Answer: 20
