Answer:

A. The D-curve shifts to the right

Explanation:

Nike and Reebok are supplement goods. It means customers can use either of two brands of shoes with almost equal satisfaction. A change of preferences by customers will influence the demand for supplement goods.

If Nike becomes unpopular, the demand for Reebok will increase. Because the increase in demand is not due to price changes, the demand curve will shift to the right. A shift in the demand curve means that the quantity demanded increases at all prices.

mash [69]

<span>Expected utility is calculated by multiplying the utility of each possible outcome by its probability and summing the products. So if Terri has a 25% chance of becoming disabled and purchases a policy then her expected utility is: (.25 x $20,000) + (.75 x $80,000) = $5,000 + $60,000 = $65,000. On the other hand, if Terri does not purchase a policy then her expected utility is (.25 x $0) + (.75 x $80,000) = $0 + $60,000 = $60,000.</span>

The nature's way is relying on a location principle called retail compatibility. It is where they place their location in a more suitable environment that will fit the category of their business. It could be seen above as because their business is about promoting healthy foods, they are placed near the gym where people in the gym would be attracted to their business.

Answer:

a) maximize 12x+16y subject to x+y≤60; x+2y≤80; 2x-3y≥0; x-9y≤0.

b) 40 fish and 20 beef dinners

c) $800

Explanation:

Let x and y represent the numbers of fish and beef dinners to prepare, respectively. Then the relations these values must satisfy are ...

x + y ≤ 60 . . . . . a maximum of 60 dinners will be sold

0.25x + 0.50y ≤ 20 . . . . . kitchen hours cannot exceed 20

x/y ≥ 3/2 . . . . . . at least 3 fish dinners for each 2 beef dinners will be sold

y ≥ 0.10(x +y) . . . . at least 10% of dinners sold will be beef

While satisfying these relations, we want to maximize the profit function:

p = 12x +16y

a) The linear programming problem can be formulated as ...

Maximize 12x +16y, subject to ...

x + y ≤ 60
x + 2y ≤ 80
2x - 3y ≥ 0
x - 9y ≤ 0

b) The graph shows the constraint inequalities with the comparison symbol reversed. The effect of that is to shade the area that is NOT part of the solution set, leaving the feasible region white. The vertex of the (white) feasible region that makes the profit line farthest from the origin is the solution we're looking for. Once the profit line is plotted so we can compare its slope to the lines bounding the feasible region, it becomes clear which vertex is the one that maximizes profit.

The solution is (x, y) = (40, 20).

40 fish dinners
20 beef dinners

c) The maximum earnings are estimated to be ...

($12)(40) +($16)(20) = $800
