20. a) xij = no. of students bused from district i to school j, where i = n, s, e, w, c and
j = c,w,s
minimize Z = 8xnc + 11xnw + 14xns + 12xsc
+ 9xsw + 0xss + 9xec + 16xew
+ 10xes + 8xwc + 0xww + 9xws
+ 0xcc + 8xcw + 12xcs
subject to
xnc + xnw + xns = 700
xsc + xsw + xss = 300
xec + xew + xes = 900
xwc + xww + xws = 600
xcc + xcw + xsc = 500
xnc + xsc + xec + xwc + xcc ≤ 1,200
xnw + xsw + xew + xww + xcw ≤ 1,200
xns + xss + xes + xws + xcs ≤ 1,200
xij ≥ 0
xnc = 700
xss = 300
xes = 900
xww = 600
xcc = 500
Z = 14,600
b) Add the following 3 constraints to the original formulation:
xss ≤ 150
xww ≤ 300
xcc ≤ 250
xnc = 700
xnw = 0
xsw = 150
xss = 150
xes = 900
xwc = 250
xww = 300
xws = 50
xcc = 250
xcw = 250
Z = 20,400
c) Change the 3 demand constraints in the
(a) formulation from ≤ 1,200 to = 1,000.
xnc = 400
xnw = 300
xsw = 150
xss = 150
xec = 50
xes = 850
xwc = 300
xww = 300
xcc = 250
xcw = 250
Z = 21,200
22. a) x1 = no. of lb of oats
x2 = no. of lb of corn
x3 = no. of lb of soybeans
x4 = no. of lb of vitamin supplement
minimize Z = .50x1 + 1.20x2 + .60x3 +2.00x4
subject to
x1 ≤ 300
x2 ≤ 400
x3 ≤ 200
x4 ≤ 100
x3/(x1 + x2 + x3 + x4) ≥ .30
x4/(x1 + x2 + x3 + x4) ≥ .20
x2/x1 ≤ 2/1
x1 ≤ x3
x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 ≥ 500
x1, x2, x3, x4 ≥ 0
b) x1 = 200
x2 = 0
x3 = 200
x4 = 100.00
Z = $420
24. a) xij = dollar amount invested in alternative i in year j, where i = p (product research and development), m
(manufacturing operations improvements), a (advertising and sales promotion) and j = 1,2,3,4 (denoting
year):
sj = slack, or uninvested funds in year j
maximize Z = s4 + 1.2xa4 + 1.3xm3 + 1.5xp3
subject to
xa1 ≥ 30,000
xm1 ≥ 40,000
xp1 ≥ 50,000
xa1 + xm1 + xp1 + s1 = 500,000
xa2 + xm2 + xp2 + s2 = s1 + 1.2xa1
xa3 + xm3 + xs3 = s2 + 1.2xa2 + 1.3xm1
xa4 + xs4 = s3 + 1.2xa3 + 1.3xm2 + 1.5xp1
xij, sj ≥ 0
Note: Since it is assumed that any amount of funds can be invested in each alternative—i.e., there is no
minimum investment required—and funds can always be invested in as short a period as one year yielding a
positive return, it is apparent that the sj variables for uninvested funds will be driven to zero in every period.
Thus, these variables could be omitted from the model formulation for this problem.
b) xa1 = 410,000 xm1 = 40,000
xa2 = 492,000 xp1 = 50,000
xa3 = 642,400 Z = $1,015,056
xa4 = 845,880
26. a) x1 = asparagus (acres)
x2 = corn (acres)
x3 = tomatoes (acres)
x4 = green beans (acres)
x5 = red peppers (acres)
Maximize Z = (1.90)(2,000)x1 + (0.10)(7,200)x2 +(3.25)(25,000)x3 + (3.40)(3,900)x4 + (3.45)(12,500)x5
Subject to

b) x1, x2 = 0, x3 = 0.4, x4 = 0.2, x5 = 0.4;
Z = $52,402
