Start from the obvious basic feasible solution of Xb = (X3, X4, X5 ) = (18, 4, 12). You may use excel to carry out calculations in simplex tableau if it helps, but please include all tableaus from all iterations in your submitted work. Maximize: 30 X1 + 50 X2 Subject to: 3X1 +5X2 +X3=18. X1 +X4 =4. 2X2 +X5 =12. X1, X2, X3, X4, X5 >= 0.arrow_forward

- Assume you want to run a computer program to derive the efficient frontier for your feasible set of stocks. What information must you input to the program?arrow_forwardA circus is planning a tower act in which individuals stand on top of one another's shoulders. Each individual must be both shorter and lighter than the person below him or her for practical and aesthetic reasons. Write a way to determine the maximum feasible number of people in such a tower given the heights and weights of each individual in the circus.arrow_forward8. A school is creating class schedules for its students. The students submit their requested courses and then a program will be designed to find the optimal schedule for all students. The school has determined that finding the absolute best schedule cannot be solved in a reasonablo time. Instead they have decided to use a simpler algorithm that produces a good but non-optimal schedule in a more reasonable amount of time. Which principle does this decision best demonstrate? O A Unreasonable algorithms may sometimes also be undecidable O B. Heuristics can be used to solve some problems for which no reasonable algorithm exsts O C. efficiency Two algorithms that solve the same problem must also have the same O B. Approximate solutions are often identical to optimal solutionsarrow_forward
