Question:
Reconsider Problem 8.12, but now assume that the amount of resource 1 available and the amount of resource 2 available are both uncertain. In particular, each follows the normal distribution, with means equal to the original estimates of 8 and 4, respectively, but each with a standard deviation of 0.5. Use a chance constraint and Analytic Solver to find the maximum profit while requiring for each original constraint that there be at least a 95 percent chance of satisfying that constraint.
Data from Problem 8.12
