Question
Evaluate the following integrals:
$\int\limits^4_{0}\big(|\text{x}|+|\text{x}+2|+|\text{x}+4|\big)\text{dx}$ 

Answer

$\text{I}=\int\limits^4_{0}\big\{|\text{x}|+|\text{x}+2|+|\text{x}+4|\big\}\text{dx}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int\limits^4_0|\text{x}|\text{dx}+\int\limits^4_0|\text{x}-2|\text{dx}+\int\limits^4_0|\text{x}-4|\text{dx}$
We know that,
$|\text{x}|=\begin{cases}-\text{x},&-5\leq\text{x}\leq0\\\text{x},&\text{x}>0\end{cases}$
$|\text{x}-2|=\begin{cases}-(\text{x}-2),&0\leq\text{x}\leq2\\\text{x}-2,&2<\text{x}\leq4\end{cases}$
$|\text{x}-4|=\begin{cases}-(\text{x}-4),&0\leq\text{x}\leq4\\\text{x}-4,&\text{x}>4\end{cases}$
$\therefore\ \text{I}=\int\limits^4_{0}\text{x dx}-\int\limits^2_{0}(\text{x}-2)\text{dx}+\int\limits^4_{2}(\text{x}-2)\text{dx}-\int\limits^4_{0}(\text{x}-4)\text{dx}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\Big[\frac{\text{x}^2}{2}\Big]^4_0-\Big[\frac{\text{x}^2}{2}-2\text{x}\Big]^2_0+\Big[\frac{\text{x}^2}{2}-2\text{x}\Big]^4_2-\Big[\frac{\text{x}^2}{2}-2\text{x}\Big]^4_0$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=8-(2-4)+8-8-2+4-(8-16)$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=20$

An automobile manufacturer makes automobiles and trucks in a factory that is divided into two shops. Shop A, which performs the basic assembly operation, must work 5 man-days on each truck but only 2 man-days on each automobile. Shop B, which performs finishing operations, must work 3 man-days for each automobile or truck that it produces. Because of men and machine limitations, shop A has 180 man-days per week available while shop B has 135 man-days per week. If the manufacturer makes a profit of Rs 30000 on each truck and Rs 2000 on each automobile, how many of each should he produce to maximize his profit? Formulate this as a LPP.
