A manufacturing company makes two models M1_1 and M2_2 of a product. Each piece of M1_1 requires 9 labour hours for fabricating and one labour hour for finishing. Each piece of M2_2 require 12 labour hours for fabricating and 3 labour hours for finishing. For fabricating and finishing, the maximum labour hours available are 180 and 30 respectively. The company makes a profit of Rs.800 on each piece of M1_1 and Rs.1200 on each piece of M2_2

The above Linear Programming Problem [LPP] is given by

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Let x,yx, y denote pieces of M1,M2M_1, M_2. Profit (to maximize): Z=800x+1200yZ = 800x + 1200y. Fabricating constraint: 9x+12y≤1809x + 12y \le 180, simplifies to 3x+4y≤603x + 4y \le 60. Finishing constraint: x+3y≤30x + 3y \le 30. Non-negativity: x,y≥0x, y \ge 0.
