Question
Solve the linear programming problem and determine the maximum profit to the manufacturer.

Answer

We have Maximise Z = 100x + 170y Subject to
$3\text{x}+2\text{y}\leq3600,\text{x}+4\text{y}\leq1800,\text{x}\geq0,\text{y}\geq0$
From the shaded feasible region it is clear that the coordinates of corner points are (0, 0), (1200, 0), (1080, 180) and (0, 450).
On solving x + 4y = 1800 and 3x + 2y = 3600, we get x = 1080 and y = 180.
Corner points
Corresponding value of Z = 100x + 170y
(0, 0)
(1200, 0)
(1080, 180)
(0, 450)
0
1200 ×100 = 12000
100 × 1080 + 170 × 180 = 138600 (maximum)
0 + 170 × 450 = 76500
 Hence, the maximum profit to the manufacture is 138600.

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.
