Perform the computation until ¢, is less than 0.5% Note: use four decimal points for the calculation. (8 marks) b) In the process of formulating oil paint three formulations have been identified as follow: 0.5x, +0.3x; +35 =-0.1 O.lx, +, +1.9%, 0.2x, —x, +0.5x, = 0.5 Use Cramer's rule to solve the equations. Show all steps of the computation and substitute the results into the original equation to check the answers. (12 marks) QUESTION 2 (P02, C02, C4) As an engineer, you are assigned to design suitable size of water reservoir. Pumps are used to extract water from the ground. The maximum height of water from surface to atmosphere has been determined to avoid uncontrolled water fountain. Assume that the only force acting on the water is the gravity force. A force balance of the water flow can be derive as Fi 2 dt (R+ HY Where v = upward velocity (m/s), t = time (s), H = height upwards from the surface (m) and R = radius of water reservoir (80km). Known that dH/dt = v, use the Euler's method with step size of 30 to determine the maximum height of water fountain (v = 0 m/s) that would be obtained if Viuai = 600m/s.

The first drink consists of 30% apple juice and 70% pineapple, while the second drink consists ‘of 60% apple and 40% pineapple. There are 1000 litres of apple and 1500 litres of pineapple juice available. If the profit for the first drink is RMO.60 per litres and that for the second drink is RM 0.50, set up a linear programming problem using Simplex method to find the number of litres of each drink that should be produced in order to maximize the profit. Only two (2) decimal places are allowed in the calculation.
