Answer the following statement with TRUE or FALSE: the correct way to implement a sensitivity analysis for the second coefficient of the objective function is to vary not only the second coefficient but also the first one (at the same time).

False

Answer the following statement with TRUE or FALSE: the optimal solution for a company that is able to produce two different products (x1 and x2) is x2 = 0 and x1 = 6. The best strategy for this company is to produce only x2.

False

The properties of a linear programming problem are:

Proportionality, additivity, divisibility, and certainty

A long period of real time cannot be represented by a short period of simulated time.

false

Simulation results will always equal analytical results if 1000 trials of the simulation have been conducted

false

Slack variables are only associated with maximization problems.

false

The "certainty" linear programming (LP) hypothesis (LP are deterministic models) is violated by integer programming.

false

The break-even point is the volume that the profit is positive (greater than zero).

false

The constraint x1 + x2 ≤ 1 is named as "conditional constraint" in 0-1 integer programming problems.

false

The three types of integer programming models are total, 0-1, and binary.

false, 0-1 and binary are the same, mixed is true answer

________ is not part of a Monte Carlo simulation.

finding an optimal solution

The sensitivity range for an objective function coefficient is the range of values over which the current __________________ remains the same. Please choose the option that would best fit the empty space above:

optimal solution

Australian road freight company Linfox uses aerodynamic trucks and trailers to reduce fuel consumption. This is a case of generating higher

productivity

Answer the following statement with TRUE or FALSE: If one of the coefficients of the objective function is changed to a value outside of its respective sensitivity range (greater than the upper limit or lower than the lower limit), the optimal solution will be different than the one originally obtained before the change is implemented.

true

For a "Primal maximization problem" with Z equal to 2,570, its respective "Dual minimization problem " would also have a Z of 2,570.

true

Random numbers are equally likely to occur.

true

Random numbers generated by a mathematical process instead of a physical process are pseudorandom numbers.

true

For a minimization integer linear programming problem, a feasible solution is ensured by rounding ________ non-integer solution values if all of the constraints are the greater-than-or-equal-to type
