- Vollmer Manufacturing makes three components for sale to refrigeration companies. The components are processed on two machines: a shaper and a grinder. The times (in minutes) required on each machine are as follows: Machine Component Shaper Grinder 1 7 5 2 5 5 3 5 2 The shaper is available for 125 hours, and the grinder is available for 95 hours. No more than 170 units of component 3 can be sold, but up to 1050 units of each of the other components can be sold. In fact, the company already has orders for 625 units of component 1 that must be satisfied. The profit contributions for components 1, 2, and 3 are $8, $6, and $9, respectively. If more time could be made available on the grinder, how much would it be worth? If required, round your answers to two decimal places.$ _____ per minute, since the dual value is _____ on the grinder at the optimal solution.The network below shows the flows possible between pairs of six locations. A graph with 6 nodes and 13 directed arcs is shown. Node 1 is connected to node 2 by arc of value 17, to node 3 by arc of value 19, and to node 5 by arc of value 9.
