Answer:

Max Profit = Rs.3, 25,500 when 10500 bottles of A and 34500 bottles of B are manufactured.

Hint:

Form Linear Equation and solve graphically.

Given:

A manufacturer of patent medicines is preparing a production plan on medicines A and B. There are sufficient raw materials available to make 20000 bottles of A and 40000 bottles of B. But there are only 45000 bottles into which either of the medicines can be put. Further, it takes 3 hours to prepare enough material to fill 1000 bottles of B and there are 66 hours available for this operation.

Solution:

Let production of each bottle of A and B are x and y respectively.

Since profits on each bottle of A and B are Rs.8 and Rs.7 per bottle respectively. So, profit on x bottles of A and y bottles of B are 8x and 7y respectively. Let Z be total profit on bottles so,

                Z = 8x + 7y

Since, it takes 3 hours and 1 hour to prepare enough material to fill 1000 bottles of Type A and Type B respectively, so x bottles of A and y bottles of B are preparing is \frac{3 x}{1000}  hours and  \frac{y}{1000}  hours respectively, about only 66 hours are available, so,

                \begin{aligned} &\frac{3 x}{1000}+\frac{y}{1000} \leq 66 \\ &3 x+y \leq 66000 \end{aligned}

Since raw materials available to make 2000 bottles of A and 4000 bottles of B but there are 45000 bottles in which either of these medicines can be put so,

                \begin{aligned} &x \leq 20000 \\ &y \leq 40000 \\ &x+y \leq 45000 \\ &x, y \geq 0 \end{aligned}

[Since production of bottles cannot be negative]

Hence mathematical formulation of the given LPP is,

Max Z = 8x + 7y

Subject to constraints,

                \begin{aligned} &3 x+y \leq 66000 \\ &x \leq 20000 \\ &y \leq 40000 \\ &x+y \leq 45000 \\ &x, y \geq 0 \end{aligned}

Region 3 x+y \leq 66000 : line   meets the axes at A (22000,0), B(0,66000) respectively.

Region containing origin represents 3 x+y \leq 66000  as (0,0) satisfy 3 x+y \leq 66000

Region x+y \leq 45000 : line x+y=45000  meets the axes at C (45000,0) and D(0,45000) respectively.

Region towards the origin will satisfy the in equation as (0,0) satisfies the in equation.

Region represented by x \leq 20000

x= 200000  is the line passes through (20000,0) and is parallel to the y-axis. The region towards the origin will satisfy the in equation.

Region represented by  y \leq 40000,

Y=40000 is the line passes through (0, 40000) and is parallel to the x- axis. The region towards the origin will satisfy the in equation.

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

                                                                                                                                   

                                                                                                                                                         Scale: On y-axis, 1 Big division=20000 units

                                                                                                                                                                    On x-axis, 1 Big division=10000 units

              

The corner points are O(0,0), B(0,40000), G(10500,34500), H(20000,6000), A(20000,0)

The value of Z at these corner points are,

Corner Points

z=8x+7y

O

0

B

280000

G

325500

H

188000

A

160000

The maximum value of Z is 325500 which is attained at G (10500, 34500)

Thus the maximum profit is Rs.325500 obtained when 10500 bottles of A and 34500 bottles of B are manufactured.
