Question: a ) [ 4 points ] Are there multiple optimal solutions to this problem? Why or why not? b ) [ 5 points ] Suppose

a)[4 points] Are there multiple optimal solutions to this problem? Why or why not?
b)[5 points] Suppose the profit per gallon of banana changes to $1.00. Will the optimal solution
change, and what can be said about the effect on total profit (increase or decrease)?
c)[5 points] Making no other changes, what would the profit of chocolate ice cream need to
change for it to possibly be optimal for the Ken and Larry, Inc to start making chocolate ice
cream? Why?
d)[6 points] If the vanilla ice cream profit increases from $0.9 to $0.92 and the profit of the banana
ice cream decreases from $0.95 to $0.93.
i. Will the optimal solution ((i.e., optimal value of decision variables) change? Why?
ii. What will the optimal total profit change to?(Write "resolve" if changes to the optimal total
profit cannot be determined without resolving the LP.) Show your work to support your answer
Please advice how I got part C wrong, I'm not sure what I did.
