Determine whether the constraint quali?cation and
Kuhn-Tucker conditions are satis?ed at the optimum
point.
Find the dimensions of a box of largest volume that
can be inscribed in a sphere of unit radius.
Minimize f (x1, x2) = x1 ? x2
Subject to g(xl, x2) = 3x12 ? 2x1x2+x22?ISO
Using the cutting plane method. Take the conver-
gence limit in step 5 as = 0.02.
Derive the expression for solution of an Uncon-
strained Geometric Programming program using
Differential Calculus.
In a certain reservoir pump installation, the ?rst cost
of the pipe is given by (100 D+ 50 D2), where D is
the diameter of the pipe in cm. The cost of the res-
ervoir decreases with an increase in the quantity of
?uid handled and is given by 20/Q, where Q is the
rate at which the ?uid is handled (cubic meters per
second). The pumping cost is given by (300Q2 /D$).
Find the optimal size of the pipe and the amount of
?uid handled for minimum overall cost.
(3) P.T.O.
