Currently, GatorMove charges GreenSeeds $1/unit for shipping cost. GreenSeeds use the EOQ model to determine its optimal quantity per shipment. Other relevant information can be found below: Average demand at the warehouse 150 units/day The standard deviation of daily demand at the warehouse 20 units/day Fixed ordering cost $250/order Unit cost $40/unit In-transit inventory carrying rate 15% On-site inventory carrying rate 20% Probability of not stocking out during the lead time 90% Operating days at the warehouse 360 days/year What is the total annual logistics cost (including transportation, on-site inventory, and in-transit inventory holding) associated with the current system?

Consider the closed system below. Let the controller gain Kp = [Kp], the actuator time constant ta = [ta], and the plant time constant, tp = [tp]. Find the command transfer function, C(s)/R(s), for the case where the actuator block is neglected. Then, find the root of the characteristic polynomial in the command transfer function for this case. Enter the root in Canvas with 3 decimal places. Make sure to include a negative sign if the root is negative.
