Solution
a)
First step
We need to select the decision variable
Let x1 is the number of workers who start working on Monday, and work till Friday
Let x2 is the number of workers who start working on Tuesday
Let x3 is the number of workers who start working on Wednesday
Let x4, x5, x6, x7 defined similarly
The main goal is to minimize the number of hired employees
b)
Minimize
z=x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 + x5 + x6 + x7
subject to
x1 +x4+x5+x6+x7 ≥ 17 (Monday constraint)
x1+x2 +x5+x6+x7 ≥ 13 (Tuesday constraint)
x1+x2+x3 +x6+x7 ≥ 15 (Wednesday constraint)
x1+x2+x3+x4 +x7 ≥ 19 (Thursday constraint)
x1+x2+x3+x4+x5 ≥ 14 (Friday constraint)
x2+x3+x4+x5+x6 ≥ 16 (Saturday constraint)
x3+x4+x5+x6+x7 ≥ 11 (Sunday constraint)
xi ≥ 0 for i=1,2,…,7 (Non negativity constraints)
c)
Next step is that we need to determine the objective function and constraints
Maximize
z=4x+5y (Objective function)
Subject to
2x+3y<=0 (Constraint)
x>=0; y>=0 (non negativity constraints)
Feasible solution
It should satisfies all of the constraints
here
x=10, y=10 is feasible
x=10, y=15 is infeasible
Optimal solution
It is the best feasible solution
The optimal solution is
x=30,y=0
--
all the best

3. (35 points) In the post office example, suppose that each full-time employee works 8 hours per day. Thus, Monday's requirement of 17 workers may be viewed as a requirement of 8(17) = 136 hours. The post office may meet its daily labor requirements by using both full-time and part-time employees. During each week, a full-time employee works 8 hours a day for five consecutive days, and a p A full-time employee costs the post office S15 per hour, whereas...
