- dent question I am having trouble formulating the objective function and constraints. Jeremy Manufacturing Company produces connecting rods for 4- and 6-cylinder automobile engines using the same production line. The cost required to set up the production line to produce the 4-cylinder rods is $1800 and the cost required to set up the production line for the 6-cylinder rods is $3200. Manufacturing costs are $16 for each 4-cylinder connecting rod and $20 for each 6-cylinder connecting rod. The production capacities are 5800 and 7200 for 6 and 4 cylinder rods respectively. The operating budget is $100,000. The selling prices are $55 per 4-cylinder rod and $70 per 6-cylinder rod. What is the optimal number of 4 and 6 cylinder rods that should be produced by the company? Identify the type of integer programming framework (Total Integer, Mixed Integer or Binary) that applies to this problem, develop the appropriate formulation (decision variables, objective function and constraints)arrow_forwardQuestion 2 A particular road is used by N drivers each day. Each driver obtains a benefit v from the journey and incurs a cost c(N ) that increases with the number of drivers on the road due to congestion. Suppose that the cost incurred is given by c(N) = a+bN, for some positive numbers a, b. If the agent decides not to use the road, they receive 0. You may assume throughout that the number of drivers N can be any real number (rather than an integer). Each driver uses the road at most once. the number of drivers that join the road is Ne = (v−a)/b (iv) Suppose that the government charges a toll t (a congestion charge) for each journey. Find the optimum toll. Interpret your answer in terms of the externality that each driver imposes on others.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is NOT responsible for health and safety at a construction worksite?Question 20 options: 1) Occupier of the worksite. 2) Person who installs machinery/equipment. 3) Self-employed person doing work at the workplace. 4) All of the above personnel are responsible for health and safety.arrow_forward
