HOMEPRO is a furniture manufacturer which produces two sizes of wood blocks (type A and B) thatare used to make either a table or a chair. A table is made of a type A and a type B wood blocks,while a chair is made of a type A and two type B wood blocks (See Figure 1)
A table makes RM 3 profit, and a chair makes RM 5 profit. If M number of type A and Nnumber of type B wood blocks are produced, how many tables and chairs should themanufacturer make to obtain the greatest profit?For example, let M = 12 and N = 12.By making 4 tables (4 type A and 4 type B) and 4 chairs (4 type A and 8 type B), themanufacturer gain profit as follows,Profit = (RM 3) × 4 + (RM 5) × 4 = RM 32.If the manufacturer makes 2 more tables and 1 less chair, the profit will be increased as follows,Profit = (RM 3) × 6 + (RM 5) × 3 = RM 33.Is this the greatest profit?

- The Iowa Energy are scheduled to play against the Maine Red Claws in an upcoming game in the National Basketball Association Developmental League (NBA-DL). Because a player in the NBA-DL is still developing their skills, the number of points he scores in a game can vary. Assume that each player's point production can be represented as an integer uniform variable with the ranges provided in the table below. Player Iowa Energy Maine Red Claws 1 [5, 20] [7, 12] 2 [7, 20] [15, 20] 3 [5, 10] [10, 20] 4 [10, 40] [15, 30] 5 [6, 20] [5, 10] 6 [3, 10] [1, 20] 7 [2, 5] [1, 4] 8 [2, 4] [2, 4] Develop a spreadsheet model that simulates the points scored by each team.

Both models require fabrication and assembly work; each H uses 4 hours of fabrication and 2 hours of assembly, and each W uses 2 hours of fabrication and 6 hours of assembly. There are 600 fabrication hours available this week and 480 hours of assembly. Each H contributes $40 towards profit, and each W contributes $30 towards profit. Use Linear Programming to find quantities of H and W that will maximize the profit.

Create the following C functions to implement this model: annual_revenue calculates and returns R for an input parameter of t. predict_year predicts the year in which revenues (in thousands) will first equal or exceed the value of the input parameter. For example, predict_year(450) would return 1990. Write a main function that calls predict_year to determine when revenues will likely exceed $1 billion. Then create an output file that contains a table of estimated revenues (in thousands of dollars) for all the years from 1990 through the year when revenues should exceed $1 billion. Round revenue estimates to three decimal places.arrow_forward

If at least one package of each type of battery was purchased, what are the possibilities of the number of packages of AAA batteries and the number of packages of AA batteries?arrow_forward[Very Hard] Suppose, you are working in a company ‘X’ where your job is to calculate the profit based on their investment. If the company invests 100,000 USD or less, their profit will be based on 75,000 USD as first 25,000 USD goes to set up the business in the first place. For the first 100,000 USD, the profit margin is low: 4.5%. Therefore, for every 100 dollar they spend, they get a profit of 4.5 dollar. For an investment greater than 100,000 USD, for the first 100,000 USD (actually on 75,000 USD as 25,000 is the setup cost), the profit margin is 4.5% where for the rest, it goes up to 8%. For example, if they invest 250,000 USD, they will get an 8% profit for the 150,000 USD. In addition, from the rest 100,000 USD, 25,000 is the setup cost and there will be a 4.5% profit on the rest 75,000. Investment will always be greater or equal to 25,000 and multiple of 100.
