Answers (1)

Answer:

Max \: Profit \Rightarrow Rs. 500 could be obtained when no units of product A and 125 units of product B are manufactured.

Hint:

Form Equation and solve graphically.

Given:

A firm manufactures two products A and B. Each product is processed on two machines. M1  and M2 . Product A requires 4 minutes of processing time on M1  and 8 min on M2  ; Product B requires 4 min on M1  and 4 min on M2

Solution:

Let required production of product A and B be x and y respectively.

Since profit on each product A and B are Rs. 3 and Rs. 4 respectively. So, profits on x number of type A and y number of type B are 3x and 4y respectively.
Let Z denotes total output daily, so,

z=3x+4y

Since, each A and B requires 4 minutes each on machine M1 . So, x of type A and y of type B require 4x and 4y minutes respectively, But total number available on machine M1 is 8 hours 20 minutes is equal to 500 minutes.

So,
\begin{aligned} &4 x+4 y \leq 500 \\ &x+y \leq 125 \end{aligned}                                    { first constraint}

Since each A and B requires 8 minutes and 4 minutes on machine M2  So , 2x of type A and y of type B require 8x and 4y minutes respectively.  But

Total time available on Machine M1 is 10 hours = 600 minutes

So,

\begin{aligned} &8 x+4 y \leq 600 \\ &2 x+y \leq 150 \end{aligned} {Second constraint}
Hence, mathematical formulation of the given L.P.P is,

Max z = 3x + 4y
Subject to constraints,

\begin{aligned} &x+y \leq 125 \\ &2 x+y \leq 150 \end{aligned}

x,y\geq 0 [Since production of chairs and tables cannot be less than 0]

Region: x+4y\leq 125  : Line x+y=125  meets the axes at A(125,0) , B(0,125)   respectively.

Region containing the origin represents x+4y\leq 125   as origin satisfies x+4y\leq 125

Region 2x+5y\leq 150 :  Line  2x+y=150 meets the axes at C(75,0), D(0,150)   respectively.

Region containing the origin represents  2x+5y\leq 150  as origin satisfies 2x+5y\leq 150

Region x,y\geq 0: it represents the first quadrant.

The corner points are 0(0,0),B(0,125), ?(25,100),C(75,0).

The value of z at these corner points are as follows.

Corner Points

z=3x+4y

O

0

B

500

\epsilon

475

C

225

The maximum value of z is 500 which is attained at B(0,125)

Thus, maximum profit is Rs500 obtained when no units of product A and 125 units of product B are manufactured.
