Question content area Part 1 You have the option to play tennis or a round of golf (but not both). The tennis match requires you to take 2 hours off from work and the round of golf requires you to take 4 hours off from work. Playing tennis has value to you equal to $40, while golf has value to you equal to $105. Tennis courts are publicly available at no cost, but golf costs $20 per round. Suppose your wage from working is $8 per hour. Part 2 The net benefit from playing tennis is $ enter your response here and the net benefit from playing golf is $ enter your response here. (Enter your responses as integers.)

Step 1
Step 1: Calculate the net benefit from playing tennis: Value of playing tennis = $40 Cost of taking time off work for tennis = 2 hours * $8/hour = $16 Net benefit from playing tennis = Value - Cost = $40 - $16 = $24 Show more…

A golf ball manufacturer knows the cost associated with various hourly production levels, given below. Production Costs for Golf Balls Production (hundred balls b) | Cost (dollars C) 2 | 250 5 | 348 8 | 439 11 | 497 14 | 540 17 | 572 20 | 620 (a) Write the function for the cubic model that gives the production costs for golf balls in dollars where b is the hourly production level in hundred balls, with data from 2 ≤ b ≤ 20. (Round all numerical values to three decimal places.) C(b) = dollars (b) If 1000 balls are currently being produced each hour, calculate the marginal cost at that level of production. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) $ per hundred balls Interpret the result. (Round your numerical answer to three decimal places.) At an hourly production level of 1000 golf balls, production cost is by $ per hundred golf balls. (c) Construct the function for the model that gives average cost in dollars per hundred balls where b is the hourly production level in hundred balls, with data from 2 ≤ b ≤ 20. (Round all numerical values to three decimal places.) C̄(b) = dollars per hundred balls (d) Calculate the rate of change of average cost for hourly production levels of 1000 golf balls. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) $ per hundred balls per hundred balls Interpret the result. (Round your numerical answer to three decimal places.) At an hourly production level of 1000 golf balls, average production cost is by $ per hundred golf balls per hundred golf balls.

Discovery Learning Exercise #10: Differential Pricing in Golf and Restaurants Part 1 Read the following scenario which will be the basis for part one of the assignment: Forrest owns Turkey Creek Country Club in Gainesville, Florida. The current greens fees for playing one round (18 holes) of golf on the course is $175.00 per player. To increase sales, Forrest partners with six different hotels that have created golf packages marketing to their own customers. Each hotel pays Forrest a different amount for the rounds of golf included in their package. Forrest wants to calculate a net round yield for each hotel using the following formula: Distribution costs = Standard Fee – Net Round Fee. New Round Fee/ Standard Round Fee = Net Golf Round Yield (round to nearest %) Where Standard Fee (-) Distribution Costs to hotel = Net Golf Round Fee Step 1: Fill in the empty boxes on the chart below with the following information: NOTE: In your calculations, write dollar values as $##.##. and do not round. For percentages, however, round to the nearest tenth. Turkey Creek Weekly Sales Recap: Source (A) | Standard Fee (B) | Net Golf Round Fee (C) | Dist. Costs per Hotel (D) In Dollars | Net Golf Round Yield (E) In Percentage | Golf Rounds Sold (F) | Net Revenue (G) --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- Comfort Suites | $175.00 | $92.00 | | | 25 | Hampton Inn | $175.00 | $91.00 | | | 40 | Hilton Garden Inn | $175.00 | $90.00 | | | 40 | Springhill Suites | $175.00 | $88.00 | | | 30 | Eleo | $175.00 | $85.00 | | | 50 | UF Hilton | $175.00 | $84.00 | | | 35 | Average or Total | $175.00 | | | | 220 | Step 2: Answer the following questions from your calculations: 1a. What is Forrest’s average distribution cost for the hotel members? 1b. What is Forrest’s average net round fee for all hotel members?

QUESTIONS 1.) The Hilton Island Tennis Club is hosting its annual professional tennis tournament. One of the tournament committee's scheduling activities is to assign chair umpires to the various matches. The tennis association rates chair umpires from 1 (best) to worst (4) based on experience, consistency, and player and coach evaluations. On a particular afternoon 4 matches start at 1:00 P.M. Five chair umpires are available to officiate the matches. The matches are prioritized in order of importance, based on the rankings and seedings of the players involved, and whether it is a singles or a doubles match. The committee wants to assign the best umpires to the highest priority matches. The following tables show the match priorities and the umpire ratings. Umpire Rating Match Priority a) Formulate a linear programming model to determine the optimum assignment of umpires to matches. b) Transform this problem into assignment tableau and find the optimal solution manually
