Misha and Dontavious were asked to solve the following problem using linear programming. A local school district can operate a large bus for $300 per day and a small bus for $200 per day. The district needs to arrange transportation for at least 360 students for a field trip and has enough chaperones to have one chaperone per bus for up to 7 buses. Each large bus can hold 60 students and each small bus can hold 45 students. What is the minimum cost for the transportation for the field trip?

Misha decided the following represented this situation:

Let x = number of large buses

Let y = number of small buses

Objective Fx: C=300x+45y

Constraints:

200+60y≥360

x+y≤7

x≥0

y≥0

Dontavious decided the following represented this situation:

Let x = number of large buses

Let y = number of small buses

Objective Fx: C=300x+200y

Constraints:

60x+45y≥360

x+y≤7

x≥0

y≥0

Decide which student set up the correct Objective function and Constraints and using that information answer the following:

a) What are the vertices for the correct feasible region?

b) What is the minimum cost for transportation for the field trip and how did you arrive at this cost?

Name and describe the three most important measures of central tendency. choose the correct answer below. a. the mean, sample size, and mode are the most important measures of central tendency. the mean of a data set is the sum of the observations divided by the middle value in its ordered list. the sample size of a data set is the number of observations. the mode of a data set is its highest value in its ordered list. b. the sample size, median, and mode are the most important measures of central tendency. the sample size of a data set is the difference between the highest value and lowest value in its ordered list. the median of a data set is its most frequently occurring value. the mode of a data set is sum of the observations divided by the number of observations. c. the mean, median, and mode are the most important measures of central tendency. the mean of a data set is the product of the observations divided by the number of observations. the median of a data set is the lowest value in its ordered list. the mode of a data set is its least frequently occurring value. d. the mean, median, and mode are the most important measures of central tendency. the mean of a data set is its arithmetic average. the median of a data set is the middle value in its ordered list. the mode of a data set is its most frequently occurring value.
