Hire-a-Car System rents three types of cars at two different locations. The profit made per day for each car type and company at the two locations is listed below:

	Car Type
Company	Type 1	Type 2	Type 3
A	$25	$40	$10
B	$30	$35	$45

The management forecasts the demand per day by car type. A linear programming model developed to maximize profit is used to determine how many reservations to accept for each type of car. The demand forecast for a particular day is 125 rentals for Type 1 cars, 55 rentals for Type 2 cars, and 40 rentals for Type 3 cars. The company has 100 cars in location A and 120 cars in location B.

Use linear programming to determine how many reservations to accept for each car type and how the reservations should be allocated to the different locations. Is the demand for any car type not satisfied? Explain.

Expert Solution

Type 3 of Company A and type 2 of Company B did not satisfy. This is because demand for type 2 and type 3 is less comparatively type 1

1. Three different makes of cars were tested for fuel efficiency. For each make of car eighteen automobiles were randomly selected and subjected to standard driving procedures. Using the data from the following results compute the between treatments estimate of σ² and the within treatments estimate of σ². At the α=.05 level of significance, can the null hypothesis, that all fuel economies are the same, be rejected? Construct the ANOVA table for this data. (Use the formulas to compute the...

Suppose there are only two types of cars in the used car market q=0 and q=1. Half the cars are q=0 and the other half are q=1.

If buyers do not know q, then they are willing to pay p=10000*Q+500 where Q is the average quality of the cars in...
