Green Vehicle Inc., manufactures electric cars and small delivery trucks. It has just opened a new factory where the C1 car and the T1 truck can both be manufactured. To make either vehicle, processing in the assembly shop and in the paint shop are required. It takes 1/40 of a day and 1/75 of a day to paint a truck of type T1 and a car of type C1 in the paint shop, respectively. It takes 1/45 of a day to assemble either type of vehicle in the assembly shop. A T1 truck and a C1 car yield profits of $275 and $225, respectively, per vehicle sold. The aim of the objective function for Green Vehicle Inc. should be to Maximize the objective value. The optimum solution is: Number of trucks to be produced per day = nothing (round your response to two decimal places).
1/ Katie Posh runs an upscale nail salon. The service process includes five activities that are conducted in the sequence described below. (The time required for each activity is shown in parentheses):Activity 1: Welcome a guest. (1 minute)Activity 2: Clip and file nails. (3 minutes)Activity 3: Paint. (5 minutes)Activity 4: Dry. (10 minutes)Activity 5: Check out the customer. (4 minutes)Three servers (S1, S2, and S3) offer the services in a worker-paced line. The assignment of tasks to servers is the following: S1 does Activity 1. S2 does Activities 2 and 3. S3 does Activities 4 and 5. The drying process does not require server 3’s constant attention; she/he needs to only escort the customer to the salon’s drying chair (equipped with fans for drying). The time to do this is negligible. There exists only one drying chair in the salon.a. What is the utilization of server 2 (in decimal form)?

Lee Beedo, a hip bachelor in Edmond, has a date for Saturday night and finds himself without a thing to wear. Faced with the daunting task of doing enough laundry to fully accessorize during his night out, Lee has sorted his clothes into loads according to fabric and color. Based on his vast experience doing laundry, Lee knows how long each load will take in both the washer and the dryer. He glances at his watch; it is now 2:00 p.m. and he has to have the last load dry by 8:30 p.m. to be there in time. Help Lee develop a schedule that will enable him to make his date on time and depict that schedule using a Gantt chart. Can he make it and, if so, by how much?

Green Vehicle Inc., manufactures electric cars and small delivery trucks. It has just opened a new factory where the C1 car and the T1 truck can both be manufactured. To make either vehicle, processing in the assembly shop and in the paint shop are required. It takes 1/25 of a day and 1/60 of a day to paint a truck of type T1 and a car of type C1 in the paint shop, respectively. It takes 1/45 of a day to assemble either type of vehicle in the assembly shop. A T1 truck and a C1 car yield profits of $300 and $220, respectively, per vehicle sold. The optimum solution is: Number of trucks to be produced per day = ? (round your response to two decimal places).

At a manufacturing assembly line, 30 jobs arrive perhour. Each job must pass through two production stages:stage 1 and stage 2. Stage 1 takes an average of 1 minute tocomplete, and 1 worker is available to perform stage 1.After completing stage 1, the job immediately passes tostage 2. Stage 2 takes an average of 2 minutes to complete,and 2 workers are available to work on stage 2. Aftercompleting stage 2, each job is inspected. Inspection takesan average of 3 minutes, and 3 workers are available toperform inspection. After inspection, 10% of the jobs mustbe returned to stage 1, and they then repeat both stages 1and 2. After inspection, 20% of all jobs return to stage 2 andrepeat stage 2. Assume that interarrival times and servicetimes are exponential.a What is the average time a job spends in the systemfrom arrival to completion?b What percentage of the time is each worker busy?
A bank receives loan applications from 6 customers a day. The bank has promised customers that applications will be processed in the order they are received. The table below shows the applications in the order they were received, the processing time for each loan application, and the due date that customers need to hear about their application status: Customer Processing time (days) Due date (days) A 9 13 B 11 18 C 8 11 D 7 13 E 10 22 F 12 28 a. Determine the average processing time for applications, the average days tardy for each customer's application, and the average number of applications being processed if the bank processes the applications in the order they were received. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) Average flow time days Average tardiness days Average number of jobs applications b. The bank decides to improve their application processing performance by giving priority to the loans that take a shorter time to be processed (SPT).…
A production line is a set of sequential operations established in a factory plant where components are assembled to make a finished product or where materials are put through a refining process to produce an end-product that is suitable for onward consumption. Ford have seven production lines in their manufacturing plant for their automotive parts where each production line produces 120, 100, 80, 116, 77, 94, 112 output per day. (a) As the Production Manager at Ford, you are required to submit the daily report of the production plant. Calculate the mean, median, and mode from the data based on the output that has been provided. (b) Also calculate the three critical parameters for measuring spread in the following ways: Range Variance Standard Deviation
