Retirement investment advisors, inc., has just offered you an annual interest rate of 4.4 percent until you retire in 40 years. you believe that interest rates will increase over the next year and you would be offered 5 percent per year one year from today. if you plan to deposit $13,000 into the account either this year or next year, how much more will you have when you retire if you wait one year to make your deposit?

Oz makes lion food out of giraffe and gazelle meat. giraffe meat has 18 grams of protein and 36 grams of fat per pound, while gazelle meat has 36 grams of protein and 18 grams of fat per pound. a batch of lion food must contain at least "46,800" grams of protein and 70,200 grams of fat. giraffe meat costs $1/pound and gazelle meat costs $2/pound. how many pounds of each should go into each batch of lion food in order to minimize costs? hint [see example 2.]

Aproduction line has three machines a, b, and c, with reliabilities of .96, .86, and .85, respectively. the machines are arranged so that if one breaks down, the others must shut down. engineers are weighing two alternative designs for increasing the line’s reliability. plan 1 involves adding an identical backup line, and plan 2 involves providing a backup for each machine. in either case, three machines (a, b, and c) would be used with reliabilities equal to the original three. a. compute overall system reliability under plan 1. (round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 4 decimal places.) reliability b. compute overall system reliability under plan 2. (round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 4 decimal places.) reliability c. which plan will provide the higher reliability? plan2plan1
