प्रश्न
A fruit grower can use two types of fertilizer in his garden, brand P and Q. The amounts (in kg) of nirogen, phosphoric acid, potash, and chlorine in a bag of each brand are given in the table. Tests indicates that the garden needs at least 240 kg of phosphoric acid, at least 270 kg of potash and at most 310 kg of chlorine.
| kg per bag | ||
| Brand P | Brand P | |
| Nitrogen | 3 | 3.5 |
| Phosphoric acid | 1 | 2 |
| Potash | 3 | 1.5 |
| Chlorine | 1.5 | 2 |
If the grower wants to minimize the amount of nitrogen added to the garden, how many bags of each brand should be used? What is the minimum amount of nitrogen added in the garden?

उत्तर
Let x bags of fertilizer of brand P and y bags of fertilizer of brand Q are used in the garden.
One bag of brand P contains 3 kg of nitrogen and one bag of brand Q contains 3.5 kg of nitrogen, therefore, x bags of brand P and y bags of brand Q will contain (3x + 3.5y) kg of nitrogen.
Since one bag of brand P contains 1 kg of phosphoric acid and one bag of brand Q contains 2 kg of phosphoric acid, therefore, x bags of brand P and y bags of brand Q will contain (x + 2y) kg of phosphoric acid. But, the garden needs at least 240 kg of phosphoric acid.
∴ x + 2y ≥ 240
Similarly, x bags of brand P and y bags of brand Q will contain (3x + 1.5y) kg of potash. But, the garden needs at least 270 kg of potash.
∴ 3x + 1.5y ≥ 270
⇒ 2x + y ≥ 180
Also, x bags of brand P and y bags of brand Q will contain (1.5x + 2y) kg of chlorine. But, the garden needs at most 310 kg of chlorine.
∴ 1.5x + 2y ≤ 310
Thus, the given linear programming problem is
Minimise Z = 3x + 3.5y
subject to the constraints
x + 2y ≥ 240
2x + y ≥ 180
1.5x + 2y ≤ 310
x, y ≥ 0
The feasible region determined by the given constraints can be diagrammatically represented as,
The coordinates of the corner points of the feasible region are A(40, 100), B(140, 50) and C(20, 140).
The value of the objective function at these points are given in the following table.
| Corner Point | Z = 3x + 3.5y |
| (40, 100) | 3 × 40 + 3.5 × 100 = 470 → Minimum |
| (140, 50) | 3 × 140 + 3.5 × 50 = 595 |
| (20, 140) | 3 × 20 + 3.5 × 140 = 550 |
The smallest value of Z is 470 which is obtained at (40, 100).
It can be seen that the open half-plane represented by 3x + 3.5y < 470 has no common points with the feasible region.
So, the minimum value of Z is 470.
Hence, 40 bags of fertilizer of brand P and 100 bags of fertilizer of brand Q are used in the garden. The minimum amount of nitrogen added in the garden is 470 kg.

A cooperative society of farmers has 50 hectares of land to grow two crops A and B. The profits from crops A and B per hectare are estimated as Rs 10,500 and Rs 9,000 respectively. To control weeds, a liquid herbicide has to be used for crops A and B at the rate of 20 litres and 10 litres per hectare, respectively. Further not more than 800 litres of herbicide should be used in order to protect fish and wildlife using a pond which collects drainage from this land. Keeping in mind that the protection of fish and other wildlife is more important than earning profit, how much land should be allocated to each crop so as to maximize the total profit? Form an LPP from the above and solve it graphically. Do you agree with the message that the protection of wildlife is utmost necessary to preserve the balance in environment?
