Applied Optimization for a trapezoid

A trough with trapezoidal cross sections is formed by turning up the edges of a 30 inch wide sheet of aluminum. Find the cross section of maximum area. (See Attachment for details)

Using Minimax Principle (Intermediate Eigenvalue)

Use the minimax principle to show that the intermediate eigenvalue {see attachment} is not positive. *Please see attachment for eigenvalue and hint on how to complete the question. Thanks for your help.

Laplace transform

Use Laplace transforms to find solution of: y'' + 9y' + 18y = 36exp((-2)t) with y(0)=0 and y'(0)=1

Optimize Test Sequence (Graduate Level)

An item is subjected to a series of n tests (example: hardness, weight, length, etc.). Two known constants are associated with carrying out the ith test in the series. The constants are Ki (the cost per item of carrying out the ith test) and Ri (the probability of rejecting the item based on the ith test). The tests are indepe ...continues

Research Works for Satellite Route Optimization.

I have researched on monotonic algorithm and genetic algorithm. I would like to know what other algorithms are used in the past for this problem. And what are the pros and cons of them? Why do we still need to find or develop new or hybrid algorithm for this problem? (See attachment for full background)
