can I get help with solving this question please?
A Manufacturer produces a component for diesel engines and a similar component for petrol engines. In the course of production, both components must pass through a machine centre and a testing centre. Diesel engine components spend 4 hours in the machine centre and 2 hours in the testing centre. Petrol engine components spend 2 hours in each centre. There are 16 hours available per day in the machine centre and 12 hours in the testing centre. A contract with a customer stipulates that at least 3 diesel engine components must be produced per day. Each diesel component that is produced earns a contribution of £60 and each petrol component earns £45. How many units of each component should be manufactured each day in order to maximise contribution?
I am sorry but we cannot provide full answers to questions.
You should watch the free lecture on linear programming.
You presumably have an answer to this question in your book, and so when you have watched the lecture then do ask if you still have any problems with the answer.
I have watched the Lecture and done the problem but have been told that my answer is wrong can I email you my workings for review?
Sorry but we cannot deal with questions by email.
Surely whoever has told you that your answer is wrong has told you why it is wrong?? If not then insist on having your mistakes explained to you!
This particular lesson will be taught in the next 2 weeks time. As such my tutor has advised me to wait until it is taught in class (smh) therefore i am seeking other options to have my work evaluated. it is a bit daunting having to wait for clarification while trying to get ahead of your studies. it feels like someone trying to hold you back.
