Explain solution RD Sharma class 12 Chapter 29 Linear Programming exercise 29.4 question 53

Answers (1)

Answer: The maximum daily profit of the manufacturer is Rs.26

Hint:

 Use property of LPP

Given:

First machine is 12 hours and second machine is 9 hours per day.

Solution:

Let x units of product A and y units of Product B be manufactured by the manufacturer per dat.

It is given that one unit of product A requires 3 hours of processing time on first machine, while one unit of product B requires 2 hours of processing time on first machine.

It is also given that first machine is available for 12 hours per day.

                3 x+2 y \leq 12

Also, one unit of product A requires 3 hours of processing time on second machine, while one unit of product B requires 1 hour of processing time on second machine.

It is also given that second machine is available for 9 hours per day.

                3 x+y \leq 9

The profits on one unit each of Product A and B are Rs.7 and Rs.4 respectively.

So the objective function is given by,

                Z=R s .(7 x+4 y)

Hence the mathematical formulation of the LPP is

Maximize Z=7x+4y

Subject to the constraints

                3 x+2 y \leq 12 \\                                       … (i)

                3 x+y \leq 9 \\                                            … (ii)

                \begin{aligned} & &x \geq 0, y \geq 0 \end{aligned}                                         … (iii)

The feasible region determined by constraints (1) and (2) is graphically represented as

Here it is seen that OABCO is the feasible region and it is bounded. The value of Z at the corner points of the feasible region are represented in tabular form as follows.

 

Corner Points

z=70x+4y

O(0,0)

7 \times 0+4 \times 0=0

A(3,0)

7 \times 3+4 \times 0=21

B(2,3)

7 \times 2+4 \times 3=26 (maximum)

C(0,6)

7 \times 0+4 \times 6=24

The maximum value of Z is 26, which is obtained at x = 2 and y = 3.

Thus, 2 units of Product A and 3 units of product B. Should be manufactured by the manufacturer per day in order to maximize the profit.

Also, the maximum daily profit of the manufacturer is Rs.26.
