1.

Objective Function is

Z= 2x + 8y

Constraint

5x + 10y = 150

X < 20

Y ≥ 14

Assume x=0

10y= 150 (divide both side by ten)

Y = 15

Assume y = 0

5x = 150

X = 30

X=20

Y=14

5x + 10y = 150

Solution 1 Solution 2
Raw Material A 0 2
Raw Material B 15 14
Total Cost 2X + 8Y 120 116

Maximize Z= 10X + 15Y

Subject to

2X + Y ≤ 26

2X + 4Y ≤ 56

X - Y ≥ -5

XY≥0

Constraint 1

2X + Y = 26 2X + Y = 26

Assume y=0 Assume X= 0

2X = 26 (divide both side by 2) y= 26

X= 13

Constraint 2

2X + 4Y = 56 2X + 4Y = 56

Assume y=0 Assume x=0

2X=56 (divide both side by 2) 4Y = 56 (divide both side by 4)

X = 28 Y = 14

Constraint 3

X – y= -5 X – Y = -5

Assume X=0 Assume Y=0

-y= -5 (Y=5) X = -5
2X + Y = 26

2X + 4Y = 56

X – y= -5

2X + Y = 26

2X + 4Y = 56 (Multiply constraint two by negative and add it to constraint)

-3Y = -30 (divide both side by -3)

Y = 10

2X + 10 = 26

2X= 26+10

2X=36

X= 18

Maximize Z= 10X + 15Y

Z= 10 * 18 + 15 * 10

Z= 180 + 150

Z= 330
