Use the following information for questions 1 through 6. The dietitian at a camp is planning breakfast for the first day of camp. The dietitian has the responsibility of providing a menu that satisfies the minimum nutrient requirements at the lowest cost. Two types of foods are being considered for the breakfast: toast and sausage. A piece of toast contains 2 milligrams of vitamin A, 3 milligrams of vitamin B, and 2 milligram of iron. A sausage contains 4 milligrams of vitamin A, 1.5 milligrams of vitamin B, and 2 milligram of iron. The minimum breakfast requirements of these nutrient elements are estimated to be: Nutrient Requirement (mg) Vitamin A 20 Vitamin B 15 Iron 16 The American Medical Association has published an article which reported that having more than four sausages for breakfast is not recommended for young people. The dietitian considers this one of the most important constraints. The unit costs of the food are: toast, 4 cents; sausage, 8 cents. Formulate this problem as a linear programming problem , solve it by the software and answer the following questions. Question 1: How many variables are there in your LP model?

Let x and y be the pieces of toast and sausage required.

Then the objective function is

Min Z=0.04x+0.08y

Constraints:

Vitamin A, 2x+4y≥20

Vitamin B, 3x+1.5y≥15

Iron, 2x+2y≥16

Sausage, y≤4

The non-negative constraints are x≥0, y≥0

Thus, the linear programming model is

Min Z=0.04x+0.08y

Subject to,

2x+4y≥20

3x+1.5y≥15

2x+2y≥16

y≤4

x≥0, y≥0

1) There are two variables in the LP model. So, option (B) is correct.

2) The LP model contains four constraints (excluding the non negative constraints). So, option (D) is correct.

3) Solving the LP model using a software, we get the solution as

z=0.4, at x=6 and y=2

So, The cost of the breakfast is $ 0.4. Option (B) is correct.

4) The breakfast should contains 6 toasts.

5) The amount of Vitamin B in the breakfast = 3(6)+1.5(2)=18+3=21 milligrams. So, option (C) is correct.

6) The amount of Iron in the breakfast= 2(6)+2(2)=12+4=16 milligrams. So, option (B) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

15%

step-by-step explanation:

use the table and count the number of guesses that has two correct answers.

the following are two correct answers

10010, 01100, 11000

a total of 3 numbers having 2 correct guesses out of 20 questions.

probability of getting 2 correct guesses = the number of questions getting 2 correct answers / total number of questions.

= 3/20

to convert it into percent multiply by 100, we get

= 3/20 * 100

= 15%

the answer is 15%
