Explanation
Answer:
a. (b) 2.5
b. (b) 1.89
Step-by-step explanation:
E(X) =0(0.05)+1(0.25)+2(0.35)+3(0.15)+4(0.15)+5(0.15)= 2.5
The maximum value of the objective function is 31.787
<h3>How to maximize the function?</h3>
The given parameters are:
Objective function:
Max P = 4x + 5y + 21
Subject to:
y- x < 1
21x + 7y < 25
x>-2, y>-4
Rewrite the inequalities as equation
y - x = 1
21x + 7y = 25
Add x to both sides in y - x = 1
y = x + 1
Substitute y = x + 1 in 21x + 7y = 25
21x + 7x + 7 = 25
Evaluate the like terms
28x = 18
Divide both sides by 28
x = 0.643
Substitute x = 0.643 in y = x + 1
y = 0.643 + 1
y = 1.643
So, we have:
Max P = 4x + 5y + 21
This gives
P = 4 * 0.643 + 5* 1.643 + 21
Evaluate
P = 31.787
Hence, the maximum value of the objective function is 31.787

You must divide 10 by itself in order to cancel it out and get y by itself, you must also do the same to the 40. When you divide both sides, you’ll get y = 4.
