A contractor, Susan Meyer, has to haul gravel to three building sites. She can purchase as much as 18 tons at a gravel pit in the north
of the city and 14 tons at one in the south. She needs 10, 5, and 10 tons at sites 1, 2, and 3, respectively. The purchase price per ton
at each gravel pit and the hauling cost per ton are given in the table below. Susan wishes to determine how much to haul from each pit
to each site to minimize the total cost for purchasing and hauling gravel.

Now suppose that trucks (and their drivers) need to be hired to do the hauling, where each truck can only be used to haul gravel from
a single pit to a single site. Each truck can haul 5 tons, and the cost per truck is five times the hauling cost per ton given above. Only
full trucks would be used to supply each site.

The County Theater is an independent entertainment theater that is in the middle of a new renovation to expand their current layout of two screens. With their current renovation plan, they hope to increase their screens to three. As of now, they are still in need of $14,000 to finish the construction project. Through market research completed on their members as well as the greater community, they estimated that each donator would give around $50. As the donations have been coming in over the course of the last 18 months, they believe that the research estimate may have been too high. They created a sample of members consisting of 40 individuals. On average, they are willing to give $40 and the standard deviation for the sample is $1.35. With an alpha of .05, construct an appropriate hypothesis test. If you find that the null hypothesis is not true, what real world circumstance may have affected the research estimate?

It is considering offering flights out of Cagayan, and would initially like to travel to three different locations: Cebu, Palawan, and Bohol. The distances of each round-trip flight going out of Cagayan are (approximately): 720 miles, 1500 miles, and 1140 miles, respectively. The company would like to use the slogan, “the average price per flight is never more than P10, 000.” As for costs, it anticipates flights to Cebu will run about 10% of airfare. Similarly, Palawan will run 12% and Bohol will run 14% of airfare. The company wants to ensure that the overall average cost is no more than 10% of earned airfare. Recent market research allows the company to conclude that it could probably sell about 1900 Cebu tickets, 700 Palawan tickets, and 1000 Bohol tickets. Under these conditions and assuming that all tickets sold are round-trip flights, how much should the company charge per ticket in order to maximize its total revenue?a. Define the…arrow_forward
