2. (a) Solve the following LPP by solving its Dual problem :                                                (16+18)

Max Z = 6X +8Y

 

Subject to, 5X +2Y ≤ 20

                                                X +2Y ≤ 10

and X, Y ≥0

(b) Solve the following LPP by Big-M Method:

Max Z = 5X₁ -4 X₂+ 3X₃

Subject to,      2X₁ +X₂ -6 X₃= 20

                                                              6X₁ +5X₂+10 X₃ ≤ 76

8X₁ -3X₂+6 X₃ ≤ 50

and X₁, X₂ ,X₃≥0

3. (a) At public telephone booth in a post office, arrivals are considered to be Poisson,        with an average inter-arrival time of 12 minutes. The length of a phone call may        be assumed to be distributed exponentially with an average of 4 minutes.               Calculate the following.

(i) What is the probability that a fresh arrival will have to wait for the phone?

(ii) Find the average number of units in the system.

(iii) What is the average length of the queue that forms from time to time?

 

(b) Surface defects on 20 steel plates were counted and the data are reported below:

1       4        3        1        2        5        0        2        1        8

2        1        3        4        6       5        3         1       4        2

Construct the relevant control chart for the process. Compute the OC function when the      average number of defects increases to: 4.5,   5.0,   5.5,    6.0,    6.                   (16+18)

 

4. In a study carried by agronomist to determine if major differences in yield response to N fertilizer exist among different variables/ varieties of jowar. The main plot treatments were 3 varieties of jowar ( V₁: CO-18, V₂: CO-19 and V₃: CO-22) and the sub- plot treatment were N rates of 0, 30 and 60 kg/ ha. The study was replicated 4 times, and the  data gathered for the experiment are shown in table

 

Replication	variety	N rate, kg/ha              0                     30                         60
I	V1	14.5	16.5	19.8
	V2	19.5	23.5	29.2
	V3	14.6	17.2	17.5
II	V1	17.9	19.2	23.5
	V2	14	19.5	17.9
	V3	15	14.8	17.3
III	V1	11.9	13.5	12.5
	V2	19.2	17.5	24.5
	V3	14.9	19.5	21.5
IV	V1	11.9	12.5	17.5
	V2	12.5	16.5	13.9
	V3	11.5	10.9	9.5

 

Analysis the above data by using split plot design.                                                                            (34)

 

5. (a) Construct an Exponentially-Weighted Moving Average Control Chart for the following data on temperatures of a chemical process (in degrees centigrade) with the latest data point getting weight 0.3:

953,   949,   937,   958,   952,   946,   939,   955,   931, 954,   963,   927,   941,   938,   957

 

(b) Compute the OC function and ASN of the Double Sampling Plan (n₁ = 25, c₁ = 2,

n₂ = 10, c₂ = 4) corresponding to the lot fraction defective values p = 0.02, 0.04, 0.06,                  0.08, 0.10, 0.12.
