Answers (1)

Answer:

Max\: Profit \Rightarrow Rs. 16 when two units of first product and 4 units of second product were manufactured.

Hint:

Form Linear Equation and solve graphically.

Given:

A factory uses three different resources for the manufacture of two different products , 20 units of the resources A , 12 units of B and 16 units of C. 1 unit of the first Product requires 2, 2 and 4 units of the respective resources and 1 unit of the second product requires 4,2 and 0 units of respective resources. It is known that the first product gives a profit of 2 monetary units per unit and the second 3.

Solution:

Let number of product I and product II are x and y respectively.

Since profit on each product I and II requires 2 an 4 units of resources A:50 , x units of product I and y units of product II requires 2x and 4y minutes respectively. But maximum available quantity of resources A is 20 units.

So,

\begin{aligned} &2 x+4 y \leq 20 \\ &x+2 y \leq 10 \end{aligned}                                  { first constraint}

Since each I and II requires 2 and 2 units of resources B . So, x units of product I and y units of product II requires 2x and 2y minutes respectively. But maximum available quantity of resources A is 12 units

So ,

\begin{aligned} &2 x+2 y \leq 12 \\ &x+y \leq 6 \end{aligned}                                      {Second constraint}

Since each units of product I requires 4 units of resources C . It is not required product II. So x units of product I require 4x units of resource C . But maximum available quantity of resource C is 16 units.

So ,

\begin{aligned} &4 x \leq 16 \\ &x \leq 4 \end{aligned}                        {Third constraint}

Hence mathematical formulation of the given L.P.P is,

Max  z = 2x + 3y
Subject to constraints,

\begin{aligned} &x+2 y \leq 10 \\ &x+y \leq 6 \\ &x \leq 4 \end{aligned}                            

 

x,y\geq 0 [Since production of I AND II cannot be less than 0]

 

Region represented by x+2y\leq 10  The line  x+2y=10  meets the axes at A(10,0) , B(0,5) respectively.

Region containing the origin represents x+2y\leq 10 as origin satisfies  x+2y\leq 10

Region represented by  x+y\leq 6 :   Line  x+y=6   meets the axes at C(6,0), D(0,6) respectively.

Region containing the origin represents  x+y\leq 6   as origin satisfies  x+y\leq 6

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

The corner points are 0(0,0),B(0,5), G(2,4),?(4,0).

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

Corner Points

z=3x+4y

O

0

B

15

G

16

F

14

?

8

The maximum value of z is 16 which is attained at G(12,4)

Thus, maximum profit is 16 monetary units obtained when 2 units of the first product and 4 units of the second product were manufactured.
