of gallons were given by the question alongside its respective probability. Revenue was also highlighted in the question. Demand one is $2 for one gallon‚ demand one for two gallons is $2-0.5=1.5 in which 0.5 is the opportunity cost‚ demand three for three gallon is 2-0.5-0.5=1. Same method is followed for demand two and three. Expected revenue of store one at one gallon is calculated by Demand one at one gallon*probability at one gallon + demand two at one gallon * probability at two gallons + demand

Formulate a linear program that could be used to determine how much of Crude A and Crude B should be used in each of the gasolines to meet the demands at the minimum cost. What is the minimum cost? How much of Crude A and Crude B are used in each gallon of the different types of gasoline? SOLUTION: Let A1 = gallons of crude A used in Regular A2 = gallons of crude A used in
