Probability distribution

The levels of a random variable together with their corresponding probabilities

OR (hopefully) provides us with decisions:

-Quickly and inexpensive -Of high quality -That are consistent

3 requirments for linear programming

-all variables are continuous -there is a single objective -the objective and the constraints are linear

Formulating

Translating the description of a problem into a mathematical description

interger programming

___ is for problems where variables are not continous

linear programming

a ____ is a math formulation that satisfies the following: -all variables are continuous -there is a single objective -the objective and constraints are linear

Random variable

a function of the result of a statistical experiment in which the outcome is uncertain

implicit constraint

are implicit in the definition of the variables

efficient process

doesn't waste any time or resources.

algorithm

is a set of instructions which, when followed in a step-by-step fashion, will produce a numerical solution to the model.

Solution

is a set of variable values which are feasible and which lead to the optimal value of the objective function.

Operation research

is the representation of real-world systems by mathematical models together with the use of quantitative methods (algorithms) for solving such models, with a goal of optimizing

Grit

perseverance and passion for longterm goals

effective process

produces a desired effect or contributes to a desired goal.

decision variables

represent the Unknowns

constraints

restrictions on the values that can be assigned to the decision variables
