The government of Grenada wishes to rebuild the West coast road that leads to the north of the island to help alleviate traffic congestion and to provide users with a safer road network. The government of Grenada has approached two (2) contractors for an estimate. They are required to submit a proposal that details the cost combination of labour (L), machinery (M), and technology (T) in achieving their expected total cost, total profit, and total revenue. Contractor 1 Two labour, four machinery, and three technology will result in a total cost of thirty-three dollars. While one labour, two machinery, and one technology give a total profit of fifteen dollars. Lastly, ten labour, five machinery, and six technologies result in total revenue of eighty-three dollars. Contractor 2 No Proposal was submitted. a) From Contractor I's proposal, derive three (3) simultaneous equations. b) From the answer to part a) above, set these equations in matrix form c) Given that the government of Grenada…

The supervisor at the Precision Machine Shop wants to determine the staffing policy that minimizes total operating costs. The average arrival rate at the tool crib, where tools are dispensed to the workers, is eight machinists per hour. Each machinist’s pay is $25 per hour. The supervisor can staff the crib either with a junior attendant who is paid $13 per hour and can process 12 arrivals per hour or with a senior attendant who is paid $16 per hour and can process 16 arrivals per hour. Which attendant should be selected, and what would be the total estimated hourly cost?

Automobile manufacturer Gruman has identified a vehicle quality issue with the bumpers theyare using on their mid-size sedan. Customers with these vehicles are suffering substantialdamage and repair costs in low-speed impacts to the bumpers. The company has been solicitingproposals for a new collapsible bumper system to upgrade the performance of their sedans to beequal to the industry average of $400 or less in a collision impact of ≤15 miles per hour (mph).Gruman Engineers believe they have found a bumper system that will meet this requirement. Todemonstrate it, they crashed six sedans with this bumper into a barrier at 15 mph, submitted themfor repairs and recorded the cost of the repairs. The mean and standard deviation of the costs arefound to be $458 and $48, respectively. At the α = .05 significance level, does the test datacontradict the manufacturer’s claim that the repair cost does not exceed $400? a)What is known? What information AND data does the problem provide? Provide a…

Describe the bounds, limitations, requirements, proportional relationships, and balance constraints: Holcomb Candles, Inc., manufactures decorative candles and has contracted with a national retailer to supply a set of special holiday candles to its 8,500 stores. These include large jars, small jars, large pillars, small pillars, and a package of four votive candles. In negotiating the contract for the display, the manufacturer and retailer agreed that 8 feet would be designated for the display in each store, but that at least 2 feet would be dedicated to large jars and large pillars, and at least 1 foot, to the votive candle packages. At least as many jars as pillars must be provided. The manufacturer has obtained 200,000 pounds of wax, 250,000 feet of wick, and 100,000 ounces of holiday fragrance. The amount of materials and display size required for each product are shown in the following table:
The Security Company in charge of rescuing visitors in the case of problems at “High Mountain Natural Park” in South Bekaa area has the intention to purchase special trained dogs to help their rescue team, so that they can conduct their search for lost people more efficiently. The rescue team is composed of 10 employees and the company is going to provide each of them with a trained dog. Two types of dogs were selected. The German Shepherd dog breed and the Belgium Malinois breed. The cost of the Belgium Malinois dog breed is $550,00 per dog, while the German Shepherd dog breed is at $850,00 each. For budget reason, the number of German Shepherd dog should be less than half the number of Belgium Malinois. For technical reason, at least three German Shepherd dog must be purchased to get advantage of the special performance of such dog breed in their particular capacity to search for lost person in all weather and under heavy conditions. The overall budget is $6500,00. All of…
