Question
Chapter 4.1, Problem 54E
To determine
Whether the given statement is true or false and give the reason for it.
“Choosing the pivot column by requiring that it be the column associated with the most negative entry to the left of the vertical line in the last row of the simplex tableau ensures that the iteration will result in the greatest increase or, at worse, no decrease in the objective function.”

Just make the linear programming model of the next exercise:
A person wins 10 million dollars in a lottery and is advised to invest in two types of shares, A and B. Type A has more risk but produces a benefit of 10%. Those of type B are safer, but produce only 7% per year. After several deliberations, he decides to invest a maximum of 6 million in the purchase of A shares and, at least, 2 million in the purchase of B shares. Furthermore, he decides that the amount invested in A is at least equal to the amount invested in B. How should you invest 10 million so that the annual benefit is maximum?
Please be as clear as possible showing all the steps
Use the method of linear programming to solve the problem.
A craftswoman produces two products: floor lamps and table lamps. Production of one floor lamp
requires 75 minutes of her labor and materials that cost $25. Production of one table lamp requires 50
minutes of labor, and the materials cost $20. The craftswoman wishes to work no more than 40 hours
each week (2400 minutes each week), and her financial resources allow her to pay no more than $900
for materials each week. If she can sell as many lamps as she can make and if her profit is $39 per floor
lamp and $33 per table lamp, how many floor lamps and how many table lamps should she make each
week to maximize her weekly profit? What is the maximum profit?
Step 4: Graph the region of possible solutions (by finding the x and y intercepts for each inequality, or
any two points for vertical and horizontal inequalities.).
An investor has $120,000 to invest in bonds. Bond A yields an average of 5% and the bond B yields 8.3%. The investor requires that at least 3 times as much money be invested in bond A as in bond B. You must invest in these bonds to maximize his return
?. This can be set up as a linear programming problem. Introduce the decision variables:
?=dollars invested in bond A
?=dollars invested in bond B
Find the objective function
