Answers (1)

Answer:

The answer of the given question B that the firm should produce 8A products and 16B products to earn maximum profit of Rs.4960

Hint:

By using the mathematical formulation of the given Linear programming is Max Z=ax + by

Given:

A small firm manufactures item A and B- The total number of items that it can manufacture in a day B at most 24. Item A takes one hour while items B takes only half an hour.

Solution:

Let the firm manufactures x members of A and y members of B products.

According to the question

                                    x+y \leq 24, x+0.5 y \leq 16, x \geq 0, y \geq 0

Maximize Z = 300x + 160y

The feasible region determined by  x+y \leq 24, x+0.5 y \leq 16, x \geq 0, y \geq 0   given by

The corner points of feasible region are A(0,0), B(0,24), C(8,16) and D(16,0)

The value of Z at corner point is

Corner Points

Z=300x+160y

 

A(0,0)

0

 

B(0,24)

3840

 

C(8,16)

4960

Maximum

D(16,0)

4800

 

The maximum value of Z is 4960 and occurs at point (8,16)

The firm should produce 8A products and 16 B products to earn maximum profit of Rs.4960.
