Photon Technologies, Inc., a manufacturer of batteries for mobile phones, signed a contract with a large...

Photon Technologies, Inc., a manufacturer of batteries for mobile phones, signed a contract with a large electronics manufacturer to produce three models of lithium-ion battery packs for a new line of phones. The contract calls for the following:

Battery Pack Production Quantity
PT-100 200,000
PT-200 100,000
PT-300 150,000

Photon Technologies can manufacture the battery packs at manufacturing plants located in the Philippines and Mexico. The unit cost of the battery packs differs at the two plants because of differences in production equipment and wage rates. The unit costs for each battery pack at each manufacturing plant are as follows:

Plant
Product Philippines Mexico
PT-100 $0.95 $0.98
PT-200 $0.98 $1.06
PT-300 $1.34 $1.15

The PT-100 and PT-200 battery packs are produced using similar production equipment available at both plants. However, each plant has a limited capacity for the total number of PT-100 and PT-200 battery packs produced. The combined PT-100 and PT-200 production capacities are 175,000 units at the Philippines plant and 160,000 units at the Mexico plant. The PT-300 production capacities are 75,000 units at the Philippines plant and 100,000 units at the Mexico plant. The cost of shipping from the Philippines plant is $0.21 per unit, and the cost of shipping from the Mexico plant is $0.18 per unit.

(a) Develop a linear program that Photon Technologies can use to determine how many units of each battery pack to produce at each plant to minimize the total production and shipping cost associated with the new contract.
Let P1 = number of PT-100 battery packs produced at the Philippines plant
P2 = number of PT-200 battery packs produced at the Philippines plant
P3 = number of PT-300 battery packs produced at the Philippines plant
M1 = number of PT-100 battery packs produced at the Mexico plant
M2 = number of PT-200 battery packs produced at the Mexico plant
M3 = number of PT-300 battery packs produced at the Mexico plant
Min P1 + P2 + P3 + M1 + M2 + M3
s.t.
P1 + P2 + P3 + M1 + M2 + M3 = Production PT-100
P1 + P2 + P3 + M1 + M2 + M3 = Production PT-200
P1 + P2 + P3 + M1 + M2 + M3 = Production PT-300
P1 + P2 + P3 + M1 + M2 + M3 Capacity Phi PT-100 & 200
P1 + P2 + P3 + M1 + M2 + M3 Capacity Mex PT-100 & 200
P1 + P2 + P3 + M1 + M2 + M3 Capacity Phi PT-300
P1 + P2 + P3 + M1 + M2 + M3 Capacity Mex PT-300
P1, P2, P3, M1, M2, M3 ≥ 0
(b) Solve the linear program developed in part (a), to determine the optimal production plan.

(c) Use sensitivity analysis to determine how much the production and/or shipping cost per unit would have to change to produce additional units of the PT-100 in the Philippines plant.

Suppose that a survey of 100 local seniors and 100 national seniors is conducted to see if the proportion of drug and alcohol use is higher locally than nationally. Locally, 65 seniors reported using drugs or alcohol within the past month, while 60 national seniors reported using them.

Hardly a day goes by without some new poll being published. Polls influence the choice of candidates and the direction of their policies, especially during election campaigns. For example, the Gallup Organization polled 1012 American adults, asking them, ``Do you think there should or should not be a law that would ban the possession of handguns, except by the police and other authorized persons?'' Of 1012 randomly chosen respondents, 374 said that there should be such a law. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of all American adults who think there should be such a law.

Solve the problem.

A one-sided confidence interval for p can be written as p <  + E or p >  - E where the margin of error E is modified by replacing z/2 with z. If a teacher wants to report that the fail rate on a test is at most x with 90% confidence, construct the appropriate one-sided confidence interval. Assume that a simple random sample of 70 students results in 5 who fail the test.

a) p < 0.032

b) p < 0.122

c) p > 0.032

d) p < 0.111

A statistics professor at a large university hypothesizes that students who take statistics in the morning typically do better than those who take it in the afternoon. He takes a random sample of 36 students who took a morning class and, independently, another random sample of 36 students who took an afternoon class. He finds that the morning group scored an average of 72 with a standard deviation of 8, while the evening group scored an average of 68 with a standard deviation of 10. The population standard deviation of scores is unknown but is assumed to be equal for morning and evening classes. Let µ1 and µ2 represent the population mean final exam scores of statistics' courses offered in the morning and the afternoon, respectively. Compute the appropriate test statistic to analyze the claim at the 1% significance level.
