Nooner Appliance Producers (NAP), a small appliance manufacturing company that specializes in clocks, must decide what types and quantities of output to manufacture for each week’s sale. Currently Nooner makes only two kinds of clocks, regular clocks and alarm clocks, from which the product mix is selected. Next week’s product mix can only be produced with the labor, facilities, and parts currently on hand. These supplies are as follows:

Number of labor hours    1,600

Number of processing hours    1,800

Number of alarm assemblies    350

The resources are related to the two alternative manufactured outputs, regular clocks and alarm clocks, in the following way: each regular clock produced requires 2 hours of labor and 6 hours of processing, while each alarm clock produced requires 4 hours of labor and 2 hours of processing. The profit per unit for regular clocks is $3.00 while the company makes $8 per unit for alarm clocks. Additionally, at least 300 clocks in total must be produced. How many of each type of clock should Nooner produce to maximize profit? The LP structure and solution are shown below where X1 represents regular clocks and X2 represents alarm clocks.

Using the output from the Management Scientist, answer the remaining questions.

(a)    What are the values of the primary variables and the objective function?

(b)    What are the values and interpretations of all slack and surplus variables?

(c)    Determine (compute manually) and interpret the range of optimality for the objective function coefficient for regular clocks.

(d)    Interpret each of the shadow prices.

That pandas returns a missing value where one of the operands is missing

That pandas treats NaN values as zero, when an operation is performed

That pandas removes all records in which one of the operands is NaN

That the + and / operations in pandas are special cases in which the NaN values are treated as floats. The rest of the mathematical operations treat NaN values as strings.

The uncertainty principle arises from a common-sense idea: To measure something, you must affect it somehow. For instance, when you use a pressure gauge to measure air pressure in a car tire you release a small amount of air into the gauge.

  • Why does shining very short wavelength photons on an electron not tell you exactly where the electron is?
  • Describe two other examples of situations in which measuring something about an object somehow changes it.

Use the normal distribution to find a confidence interval for a proportion p given the relevant sample results. Give the best point estimate for p, the margin of error, and the confidence interval. Assume the results come from a random sample. A 95% confidence interval for p given that p Overscript ^ EndScripts equals 0.42 and n equals 450. Round your answer for the best point estimate to two decimal places, and your answers for the margin of error and the confidence interval to three decimal places.
