An example of a 0,1 integer model is deciding what all to put into my vehicle(rather than with the moving company) when I move next year. This would be a matter of knowing the weight capacity of my vehicle and the items I want to put in the vehicle. For this example, I’ll assume my vehicle can hold 500 pounds and the items I want to carry are 100, 50, 50, 50, 50, 100, 75, 15, 60, 30. This would be too much to carry which leads to this model having a 0,1 integer solution to decide what the optimal solution would be within the 500 pound limit. There is an optimal solution for this situation in which 1X1+1X2+0X3+1X4+1X5+1X6+1X7+1X8+1X9+0X10=500. Do you agree with my post. Please explain.

Suppose, you are working in a company ‘X’ where your job is to calculate the profit based on their investment.If the company invests 100,000 USD or less, their profit will be based on 75,000 USD as first 25,000 USD goes to set up the business in the first place. For the first 100,000 USD, the profit margin is low: 4.5%. Therefore, for every 100 dollar they spend, they get a profitof 4.5 dollar.For an investment greater than 100,000 USD, for the first 100,000 USD (actually on 75,000 USD as 25,000 is the setup cost), the profit margin is 4.5% where for the rest, it goes up to 8%. For example, if they invest 250,000 USD, they will get an 8% profit for the 150,000 USD. In addition, from the rest 100,000 USD, 25,000 is the setup cost and there will be a 4.5% profit on the rest 75,000. Investment will always be greater or equal to 25,000 and multiple of 100.Complete the RECURSIVE methods below that take an array of integers (investments)and an iterator (always sets to ZERO(‘0’) when the…

Write a program to generate the desired output for the model. Use it to estimate the average time that a customer spends in the system and the average amount of overtime put in by the server, in the case where the arrival process is a Poisson process with rate 10, the service time density is g(x) = 20e^−40x (40x)^2, x > 0 and T = 9. First try 100 runs and then 1000.
[Medium] Suppose, you have been given a non-negative integer which is the height of a ‘house of cards’. To build such a house you at-least require 8 cards. To increase the level (or height) of that house, you would require four sides and a base for each level. Therefore, for the top level, you would require 8 cards and for each of the rest of the levels below you would require 5 extra cards. If you were asked to build level one only, you would require just 8 cards. Of course, the input can be zero; in that case, you do not build a house at all. Complete the recursive method below to calculate the number of cards required to build a ‘house of cards’ of specific height given by the parameter. public int hocBuilder (int height){ // TO DO } OR def hocBuilder(height):
You and your friends decided to hold a “Secret Santa” gift exchange, where each person buys a gift for someone else. To see how this whole thing works, let’s consider the following example. Suppose there are 7 people A, B, C, D, E, F, and G. We denote x → y to mean “x gives a gift to y.” If the gift exchange starts with person A, then they give a gift to E. Then E gives a gift to B. And it is entirely possible that B gives a gift to A; in such a case we have completed a “cycle.” In case a cycle occurs, the gift exchange resumes with another person that hasn’t given their gift yet. If the gift exchange resumes with person D, then they give a gift to G. Then G gives a gift to F. Then F gives a gift to C. Then finally C gives a gift to D, which completes another cycle. Since all of the people have given their gifts, the giftexchange is done, otherwise the gift exchange resumes again with another person. All in all, there are two cycles that occurred during the gift exchange: A → E → B → A…
Suppose 2n people come to the game and every individual pays for their own "ticket" and that by the end of the evening there were exactly n with 50 Dhs notes and exactly n with 100 Dhs notes. We want to think about different the implications of them arriving in different orders. For example, if all the people with 100s arrived first then we would need to issue 50 IOUs(I Own You). Draw a flow chart and answer by logic and math.
To cut an 'n' centimeter-long gold bar into 2 pieces costs $n. When a gold bar is cut into many pieces, the order in which the cuts occur can affect the total amount of costs. For example, to cut a 20 centimeter gold bar at length marks 2, 8, and 10 (numbering the length marks in ascending order from the left-hand end, starting from 1). If the cuts to occur in left-to-right order, then the first cut costs $20, the second cut costs $18 (cutting the remaining 18 centimeter bar at originally length mark 8), and the third cut costs $12, totaling $50. If the cuts to occur in right-to-left order, however, then the first cut costs $20 time, the second cut costs $10, and the third cut costs $8, totaling $38. In yet another order, the first cut is at 8 (costing $20), then the 2nd cut is at 2 (costing $8), and finally the third cut is at 10 (costing $12), for a total cost of $40. Given an 'n' centimeter-long gold bar G and an array C[1..m] containing the cutting points in ascending order): a.…
H1. Compute the value of an European Call option at time 0 for the following parameters: strike, K = 120, maturity 1 year, σ = 0.15, S0 = 120 and interest rate, r = 0.02: (a) by implementing, using Python, R, C++ or Matlab, a binomial model where n = 100, 1000, or 10000. For each value of n compute the error (difference between option value obtained using the B-S model and the one from the binomial model). Compute ∆0.
Assume a very good NBA team has a 70% chance of winning in each game it plays. Use simulation to answer these questions, where each iteration of the simulation generates the outcomes of all 82 games. Use simulation with 10,000 iterations to answer the questions. For part a, write your numerical answer with no decimal or commas (e.g., if your computed answer is 101,021.128, write your answer as 101021). For part b, write your probability answer to two decimal places with a leading 0 (e.g., write a probability of 90.02% as 0.90). a. During an 82-game season what is the average length of the team's longest winning streak? The average length of the winning streak is . b. What is the probability that the team has a winning streak of at least 16 games? The probability is
