6. An assembly line requires two components:
6. An assembly line requires two components: gadjits and widjits. Gadjits are produced by center 1 and widjits by center 2 . Each unit of the end item, called a jit-together, requires three gadjits and two widjits, as shown in Figure 6.14. The daily production quota on the assembly line is 800 jit-togethers. Figure 6.14 Components for End Item J The container for gadjits holds 80 units. The policy variable for center 1 is set at 0.09. The average waiting time for a container of gadjits is 0.09 day, and 0.06 day is needed to produce a container. The container for widjits holds 50 units, and the policy variable for center 2 is 0.08. The average waiting time per container of widfits is 0.14 day, and the time required to process a container is 0.20 day. a. How many containers are needed for gadits? b. How many containers are needed for widjita? Notes: Solve manually using "Number of Container" equations or Use Solver "Number of Containers" tool
