1: Determine if the following problems are bounded or unbounded and then determine if they are feasible or infeasible (5pts each):


6) A Chemical manufactures three chemicals: A, B, and C. These chemicals are produced via two production processes: 1 and 2. Running process 1 for an hour costs $4 and yields 3 units of A, 1 ofB, and 1 of C. Running process 2 for an hour costs $1 and produces I unit of A and I of B. To meet customer demands, at least 10 units of A, 5 of B, and 3 of C must be produced daily. Formulate the LP and then graphically determine a daily production plan that minimizes the cost ofmeeting company's daily demands. (20 points)

3. A firm has three types of wood products (X₁, X2, X3) each requires (or potentially requires) four inputs: A B, C and D. The profit contribution of each output is $20, $27 and $34.5, respectively. a. The company's objective is to choose the product mix that maximizes its profit. Write out the objective function and the constraints. b. Find the profit-maximizing solution using EXCEL's Solver. Hand in copies of the answer report and the sensitivity report. c. If you were to give it a two-dimensional interpretation (that is, think of a two product model on a graph), how would you interpret the "allowable increase" for the X3 coefficient? d. Would it be worth for the firm to acquire one more unit of input A if it cost $10 to do so? Explain with reference to the shadow price.
