उत्तर
To find the graphical solution, construct the table as follows:
| Inequation | Equation | Double intercept form | Points (x1, x2) | Region |
| x – y ≤ 1 | x – y = 1 | `x/(1) + y/(-1)` = 1 | A (1, 0) B (0, –1) |
0 – 0 ≤ 1 |
| x + y ≥ 1 | x + y = 3 | `x/(3) + y/(3)` = 1 | C (3, 0) D (0, 3) |
0 + 0 ≥ 3 ∴ 0 ≥ 3 ∴ non-origin side |
| x ≥ 0 | x = 0 | – | R.H.S. of Y- axis | |
| y ≥ | y = 0 | above X-axis |

The shaded portion Y' DE is the feasible region.
Whose vertices are D(0, 3) and E
E is the point of intersection of lines
x – y = 1 …(i)
x + y = 3 …(ii)
∴ By (i) + (ii), we get
x – y = 1
x + y = 3
2x = 4
∴ x = `(4)/(2)` = 2
Substituting x = 2 in (i), we get
2 – y = 1
∴ y = 1
∴ E(2, 1)
Here, the objective function is Z = 2x + 3y
Now, we will find minimum value of Z as follows:
| Feasible points | The value of Z = 2x + 3y |
| D(0, 3) | Z = 2(0) + 3(3) = 9 |
| E(2, 1) | Z = 2(2) + 3(1) = 4 + 3 = 7 |
∴ Z has minimum value 7 at E(2, 1)
∴ Z is minimum, when x = 2, y = 1.

The postmaster of a local post office wishes to hire extra helpers during the Deepawali season, because of a large increase in the volume of mail handling and delivery. Because of the limited office space and the budgetary conditions, the number of temporary helpers must not exceed 10. According to past experience, a man can handle 300 letters and 80 packages per day, on the average, and a woman can handle 400 letters and 50 packets per day. The postmaster believes that the daily volume of extra mail and packages will be no less than 3400 and 680 respectively. A man receives Rs 225 a day and a woman receives Rs 200 a day. How many men and women helpers should be hired to keep the pay-roll at a minimum ? Formulate an LPP and solve it graphically.
A firm manufactures 3 products A, B and C. The profits are Rs 3, Rs 2 and Rs 4 respectively. The firm has 2 machines and below is the required processing time in minutes for each machine on each product :
| Machine | Products | ||
| A | B | C | |
| M1 M2 |
4 | 3 | 5 |
| 2 | 2 | 4 | |
Machines M1 and M2 have 2000 and 2500 machine minutes respectively. The firm must manufacture 100 A's, 200 B's and 50 C's but not more than 150 A's. Set up a LPP to maximize the profit.
Amit's mathematics teacher has given him three very long lists of problems with the instruction to submit not more than 100 of them (correctly solved) for credit. The problem in the first set are worth 5 points each, those in the second set are worth 4 points each, and those in the third set are worth 6 points each. Amit knows from experience that he requires on the average 3 minutes to solve a 5 point problem, 2 minutes to solve a 4 point problem, and 4 minutes to solve a 6 point problem. Because he has other subjects to worry about, he can not afford to devote more than
A farmer has a 100 acre farm. He can sell the tomatoes, lettuce, or radishes he can raise. The price he can obtain is Rs 1 per kilogram for tomatoes, Rs 0.75 a head for lettuce and Rs 2 per kilogram for radishes. The average yield per acre is 2000 kgs for radishes, 3000 heads of lettuce and 1000 kilograms of radishes. Fertilizer is available at Rs 0.50 per kg and the amount required per acre is 100 kgs each for tomatoes and lettuce and 50 kilograms for radishes. Labour required for sowing, cultivating and harvesting per acre is 5 man-days for tomatoes and radishes and 6 man-days for lettuce. A total of 400 man-days of labour are available at Rs 20 per man-day. Formulate this problem as a LPP to maximize the farmer's total profit.
