here [url removed, login to view] For people
with weights between 40kg and 170kg and heights between
148cm and 200cm, write a Maple procedure to input a weight and
height and output the corresponding BMI value and its weight
status in an appropriate statement. If the BMI is within 1 BMI unit of an interval’s boundary, a
statement should be added indicating that the BMI is borderline.
BMI Weight Status
Below 18.5 underweight
18-5 – 24.9 normal

Problem 2
Read the description of the problem and then answer the questions that follow.
You are a business adviser providing expert advice on request. Your client is a snack stall, Daily Snacks,
which can sell whatever it can produce. A requirement of the stall location is it must serve at least 100
customers each day.
Snacks take 1 minute each to produce and sell for 20 pence. Each Soup takes 2.5 minutes to produce
and sells for 30 pence.
Daily Snacks’ objective is to maximise the total revenue for the stall, given that it has 200 preparation
minutes available each day and at least 40 soups must be served.
Questions
You should answer the following questions and incorporate your answers into a wordprocessed
report to form part of your final pdf. The sections of your report should correspond
to the individual questions following.
1. Formulate the client’s problem as a linear programming model, clearly defining the
variables, the objective function and the constraints.
(6%)
2. Solve the problem graphically (use graph paper).
(8%)
3. Solve the problem using the Excel Solver and interpret the results.
(8%)
4. Find the value of the slack-variable relating to the minutes available and discuss its
economics interpretation.
(5%)
5. Find the shadow price of minutes available and discuss its economic interpretation.

6. Suppose Daily Snacks can produce no more than 75 snacks each day. What should be the
combination of snacks and soups now?

7. For the final part of your report, in your capacity as an Adviser, you should present a
memorandum to your client. Describe your main conclusions in simple, non-technical
English; i.e. do not use technical terms like variable, objective function or dual price. Don’t
worry about repeating some or all of the points that you have already made in answer to
earlier questions. The aim is to communicate your conclusions clearly to someone who is
knowledgeable about baking and delivering, but who knows nothing about the subject of
linear programming. You may use tables and charts if you wish.
