Question

Shraddho wants to invest at most ₹ 25,000/- in saving certificates and fixed deposits. She wants to invest at least ₹ 10,000/- in saving certificate and at least ₹ 15,000/- in fixed deposits. The rate of interest on saving certificate is 5% and that on fixed deposits is 7% per annum. Formulate the above problem as LPP to determine maximum income yearly.

Solution

Let x1: amount (in ₹) invest in saving certificates.

x2: amount (in ₹) invest in fixed deposits, x1 x2 ≥ 0.

From given conditions, x1 + x2 25,000

Also, Shraddha wants to invest at least ₹ 10,000/- in saving certificate.

∴ x1 10,000

Also, She wants to invest at least ₹ 15,000/- in fixed deposits.

∴ x2 15,000

Total interest = z = 0.05x1 + 0.07x2

Maximize z = 0.05x1 + 0.07xsubject to

x1 + x2 25,000

x1 10,000

x2 15,000

x1, x2 0

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 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.
