Answers (1)

Answer:

  1. 4 Tennis Racket Bats must be made so that factory runs at all capacity.
  2. Maximum profit is 200 when 4 tennis and 12 cricket balls are produced.

Hints:

Let the number of tennis racket be x number of cricket bat be y

Given:

Solution:

Let the number of Tennis Racket be x.

Number of cricket bats be y.

According to the question,

 

 

 

              Machine hours                                                    Craftsman’s hours

                                    

            Tennis Racket – 1.5 hours                   Tennis Racket requires -3 hours

            Cricket bat requires – 3 hours              Cricket Bat requires – 1 hour

    Maximum time available – 42 hours        Max time available – 24 hour

\begin{aligned} &1.5 x+3 y \leq 42 \\ & \end{aligned}

 3 x+6 y \leq 84 \\                               3 x+y \leq 24

 x+2 y \leq 28                                 Also  x \geq 0, y \geq 0

As we want maximize the profit.

Hence function used here will be maximize

 profit on each tennis rocket  à Rs.20

Profit on each Bat                     à Rs.10

Max Z = 20x + 10y

Combining all the constraints:

Maximize Z = 20x + 10y

Subject to the constraints:

      \begin{aligned} &x+2 y \leq 28 \\ &3 x+y \leq 24 \\ &x \geq 0, y \geq 0 \end{aligned}

Now:

x+2 y \leq 28                                                        

 

x

 y

3 x+y \leq 24

Thus,

  1. 4 Tennis Racket Bats must be made so that factory runs at all capacity.
  2. Maximum profit is 200 when 4 tennis and 2 cricket balls are produced.
