Optimization problem that involves comparing two probability distributions
F and G are cumulative probability distributions with identical support. G first order stochastically dominates F, i.e., for every X on the support, F(x) > G(x). Prove (or disprove) the proposition that argmax [X(1-G(X))] > argmax [X(1-F(X))], where argmax is the value of x that maximizes the expression in brackets. See atta ...continues

You mix coffee beans from Peru and Columbia to make two different kinds of coffee. Each 4 lb. bag of Classic brew uses three parts of Columbia beans to one part of Peru beans. Each 4 lb. bag of Nuvo brew uses equal parts of Columbia and Peru beans. You make $2.00 profit for each bag of Classic brew and $1.50 profit for ea ...continues
Steelco manufactures two types of steel at three different steel mills. During a given month, each steel mill has 200 hours of blast furnace time available. Because of the differences in the furnaces at each mill, the time and cost to produce a ton of steel differ for each mill, as listed in the file P04_62.xls. Each month Steel ...continues

** I think I need to build a precision tree, but I cant seem to get the formula placed into the spreadsheet to build the tree correctly. I may be reading into the question too much, which is making it difficult to organize the data. Consider a population of 2000 individuals, 800 of whom are woman. Assume that 300 of the woman ...continues
