QUESTION 7

1. Assume that we are using 0-1 integer programming model to solve a capital budgeting problem and xj = 1 if project j is selected and xj = 0, otherwise.

The constraint (x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 ? 2) means that __________ out of the 4 projects must be selected.

QUESTION 8

1. The Wiethoff Company has a contract to produce 10000 garden hoses for a customer. Wiethoff has 4 different machines that can produce this kind of hose. Because these machines are from different manufacturers and use differing technologies, their specifications are not the same.

Write a constraint to ensure that if machine 4 is used, machine 1 will not be used.

Y1 + Y4 ? 0

Y1 + Y4 = 0

Y1 + Y4 ? 1

Y1 + Y4 ? 0

QUESTION 9

1. You have been asked to select at least 3 out of 7 possible sites for oil exploration. Designate each site as S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6, and S7. The restrictions are:

Restriction 1. Evaluating sites S1 and S3 will prevent you from exploring site S7.

Restriction 2. Evaluating sites S2 or

S4 will prevent you from assessing site S5.

Restriction 3. Of all the sites, at least 3 should be assessed.

Assuming that Si is a binary variable, write the constraint(s) for the second restriction

S2 +S5 ? 1

S4 +S5 ? 1

S2 +S5 + S4 +S5 ? 2

S2 +S5 ? 1, S4 +S5 ? 1

2 points

QUESTION 10

1. Binary variables are

0 or 1 only

any integer value

any continuous value

any negative integer value

2 points

QUESTION 11

1. You have been asked to select at least 3 out of 7 possible sites for oil exploration. Designate each site as S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6, and S7. The restrictions are:

Restriction 1. Evaluating sites S1 and S3 will prevent you from exploring site S7.

Restriction 2. Evaluating sites S2 or

S4 will prevent you from assessing site S5.

Restriction 3. Of all the sites, at least 3 should be assessed.

Assuming that Si is a binary variable, the constraint for the first restriction is

S1 + S3 + S7 ? 1

S1 + S3 + S7 ?1

S1 + S3 + S7 = 2

S1 + S3 + S7 ? 2

2 points

QUESTION 12

Write the constraint that indicates they can purchase no more than 3 machines.

Y1 + Y2 + Y3+ Y4 ? 3

Y1 + Y2 + Y3+ Y4 = 3
