True/False (2 points each)

1. False – The objective of linear programming is maximizing profit or minimizing cost, not the
other way around.

2. False – Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1.

3. True – Sinking funds are used to reach a financial goal.

4. False – At the break-even point, total cost equals total revenue.

5. False – A singular matrix does not have an inverse.

6. False – In compound interest, interest is paid on both the initial principal and accumulated
interest.

7. True – Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope.

8. True – Assumptions in linear programming models relate to the structure of the model.

Work Out Questions

34. Linear Programming Model


A. Let x be the number of pens and y be the number of pencils.

Objective Function: Maximize Z = 10x + 16y

Constraints:

° Machine A: 5x+3y <= 20


Machine B: 4x + 2y < =15
Non-negativity: x, y >0

B. Objective Function: Z = 10zx + 16y


Constraints:
•5x +3y < =20
• 4x + 2y < =15
• x,y =>0
C. Graphical Solution: Solve by plotting constraint lines and finding feasible region (not possible
here, but it involves finding corner points and evaluating Z).

35. Find slope and y-intercept of


15y-10x+15=0

Rewrite as y=2/3x-1

Slope: 2/3

Y-intercept: -1
