Referring to Exercise 19, suppose that the unit cost of distributing the products to stores is the same for each product but varies by warehouse because of the distances involved. It costs $0.75 to distribute one unit from warehouse 1 and $1.00 to distribute one unit from warehouse 2. Organize these costs into a matrix C and then use matrix multiplication to compute the total cost of distributing each product.

23. Consider a simple economy with just two industries: farming and manufacturing. Farming consumes 1/2 of the food and 1/3 of the manufactured goods. Manufacturing consumes 1/2 of the food and 2/3 of the manufactured goods. Assuming the economy is closed and in equilibrium, find the relative outputs of the farming and manufacturing industries.

Telefonika is a telecommunication company, located in the Accra Mall, selling mobile phones and accessories. Most of their new phones are ordered. But, Telefonika stocks three main phones for walk-in customers. Every week, they generate profit of GH¢600 from selling Galaxy S2, GH¢400 from Galaxy S3 and GH¢300 from Galaxy S4. The overall weekly cost of these types of phones are GH¢1,800, GH¢2,100 and GH¢1,200 respectively. This week, Telefonika has a budget of GH¢12,000 available to buy these three types of phones. During sales, each phone type must be unpacked, leading to 8 hours of unpacking time for S2 phones, 12 hours for S3 phones and 16 hours for S4 phones. The manager estimates that he and his workers have 120 labour hours available to unpack the three types of phones. Telefonika has enough space to order 20 phones this week. The manager also wants to stock at least twice as many S4 as S2 and S3 phones because S4 phones sell better.a) Formulate a linear programming model for this…
