State the mathematical representation to show that the total number of linear feet of wood for
both couches (X) and chairs (Y) cannot exceed 5,000.
a. 60X + 35Y >= 5,00060X + 35Y >= 5,000
b. 35X + 60Y = 5,00035X + 60Y = 5,000
c. 60X + 35Y <= 5,00060X + 35Y <= 5,000 - ANS This adds 60 linear feet for each couch made
to 35 linear feet for each chair made to arrive at total linear feet that cannot be exceeded
c. 60X + 35Y <= 5,00060X + 35Y <= 5,000

a couch and 15 to make a chair. Couches sell for $800 and chairs for $350.
State the mathematical representation to show that the company must make at least 20 chairs
to fill backorders.
Y = 20
Y >= 20Y
Y <= 20 - ANS = is not appropriate
< is making less than required
Therefore the correct answer is:
Y >= 20Y

2. The assignment is a temporary endeavor.
3. The goal has a start and end date.
4. Every task in the project is specific to the objective or goal of the project. - ANS project
What is a benefit of using EOQ?
a. It is based on a probability coefficient.
b. It considers all inventory factors in the calculations.
c. It can minimize storage space used. - ANS c. It can minimize storage space used.
By ordering the right quantity, the chances of overstock are lessened.
Which of the following are two primary questions to answer when managing inventory?
a. How much money should be spent? How much inventory should be ordered?
b. How much inventory should be ordered? When should the orders be placed?
c. How much money should be spent? How frequently should the orders be placed? - ANS b.
How much inventory should be ordered? When should the orders be placed?
