Question.28. A dealer wishes to purchase a number of fans and sewing machines. He has only Rs 5,760 to invest and has a space for at most 20 items. A fan costs him Rs 360 and a sewing machine Rs 240. His expectation is that he can sell a fan at a profit of Rs 22 and a sewing machine at a profit of Rs 18. Assuming that he can sell all the items that he can buy, how should he invest his money in order to maximize the profit ? Formulate this as a linear programming problem and solve it graphically.
Solution: Let the dealer buy x fans and y sewing machines. The LPP is to maximize profit
The feasible region is OBPCO which is shaded in the figure.
P is the point of intersection of the lines x + y = 20 and 3x + 2y = 48.
Solving these equations we get point P (8,12).
The vertices of the feasible region are 0(0, 0), B(0,20), P(8,12), C(16,0)
The value of objective function Z = 22x + 18y at these vertices are as follows:
The maximum profit is Rs 392 when 8 fans and 12 sewing machines are purchased.
