Answer:.

The answer of the given questions is that 8 items of type A and 16 of type B should be produced for max profit.

Hint:

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

Given:

A firm makes items A and B and the total number of items it can make in a day is m. It takes one hour to make an item of A and only half an hour to make an item of B. The maximum time available per day is 16 hours.

Solution:      

      

Let the number of items of type A and B produce be x and y respectively.

The LPP is maximize Z=300x+160y

Subject to the constraints.

                  \begin{aligned} &x+y \leq 24 \\ &x \cdot 1+y \cdot \frac{1}{2} \leq 16 \\ &x \geq 0, y \geq 0 \end{aligned}

Draw the lines

                x+y=24                                                           … (i)

                 \begin{aligned} &\\ &x+\frac{1}{2} y=16 \end{aligned}                                                       … (ii)

These meet at P (8, 16)

The feasible region is OCPB

The value of Z = 300x + 160y at 0 is zero

At C(16,0) is 4800

At B(0,24) is 3840

At P(8,16) is 4960

Clearly, value is max at P(8,16)

\Rightarrow 8 items type A and 16 type B should be produced for max. Profit
