Let a = units of A produced
Let b = units of B produced
At least 30 units of product A and 10 units of product B are required daily, and the maximum number of units per day should not exceed 80.
Therefore
a ≥ 30
b ≥ 10
a + b ≤ 80
Product A yields a profit of $15 and product B yields a profit of $8.
Therefore the objectve profit function is
P(a,b) = 15a + 8b
Answer:
The objective function is
P(a,b) = 15a + 8b, subject to
a >= 30; b>= 10; a+b <= 80
Create a graph that displays the constraints and calculates maximum profit at the boundary points. The solution region is shaded.
The maximum profit occurs when a=70 and b=10.
