Explanation of Solution

Determining a linear equation system:

Assume that the amount x denotes the after-tax profit. It is given that the company earns a profit of $60,000.

Also, it is given that the company pays employees a bonus equal to 5% of after-tax profits. Thus, Bonus is as follows:

5100×x=0.05x

So, the residue amount after deducting bonus is =(600000.05x).

Also, the state tax is 5% of profits after the bonuses are paid.

Thus, the state tax is =0.05×(600000.05x).

So, the residue amount after deducting bonus, state tax is =60000[0.05×(600000.05x)+(600000.05x)]

Solve the linear programming below by (a) graphing and (b)using simplex method.   A certain company makes 2 models of motorcycles, model 2A and model 2B. Both models pass through assembling and painting. A model 2A motorcycle needs 4 hours for in assembling and 3 hours in painting. A model 2B motorcycle needs 8 hours in assembling and 12 hours in painting. Machines in assembling are available for 64 hours, while those in painting, 72 hours. The profit for each model 2A motorcycle is P2700 and P3600 for a model 2B motorcycle. How many model 2A and 2B motorcycles must be manufactured to maximize profit? What is the maximum profit?   Solve by graphing Correct objective function and constraints Correct Process (conversion-determining points – verifying at point (0,0)  Correct graphand correct values and interpretation of x, y, and z    Using Simplex method Correct placement of values of the first matrix Correct process and complete solution (determining the pivot row, column, and…
We are given that the incubation time is normally distributed with a mean of 35 days and standard deviation of 2 days. Therefore, ? =   and ? =   .We wish to determine how many of the 10,000 eggs can be expected to hatch in 31 to 39 days. Since  35 − 31 = 4,  31 days is located   standard deviations to the left of the mean. Similarly, 39 days is located   standard deviations to the right of the mean.
Suppose that a parachutist with linear drag (m=50 kg, c=12.5kg/s) jumps from an airplane flying at an altitude of a kilometer with a horizontal velocity of 220 m/s relative to the ground. a) Write a system of four differential equations for x,y,vx=dx/dt and vy=dy/dt. b) If theinitial horizontal position is defined as x=0, use Euler’s methods with t=0.4 s to compute the jumper’s position over the first 40 s. c) Develop plots of y versus t and y versus x. Use the plot to graphically estimate when and where the jumper would hit the ground if the chute failed to open.
