Solution
The given equations are
x + y ≤ 50
2x + y ≤ 80
x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0
First convert the inequations into equations to obtain the lines
x + y = 50
2x + y = 80
x = 0, y = 0
Line x + y = 50 meets the coordinate axes at points A(0, 50) and E(50, 0). Join these points to make the line x + y = 50.
Similarly, line 2x + y = 80 meets the coordinate axes at points B(0, 80) and D(40, 0). Join these two points to make the line 2x + y = 80.
Lines 2x + y = 80 and x + y = 50 meet each other at C(30, 20).
The coordinates of the corner points are O(0, 0), A(0, 50), C(30, 20) and D(40, 0).
We have to maximize Z = 105x + 90y. So, we will find the corner point where the value of Z is maximum.
| Corner Points | Corresponding value of Z |
| O(0, 0) | 0 |
| A(0, 50) | 4500 |
| C(30, 20) | 4950 |
| D(40, 0) | 4200 |

A diet is to contain at least 80 units of vitamin A and 100 units of minerals. Two foods F1and F2 are available. Food F1 costs Rs 4 per unit and F2 costs Rs 6 per unit one unit of food F1 contains 3 units of vitamin A and 4 units of minerals. One unit of food F2contains 6 units of vitamin A and 3 units of minerals. Formulate this as a linear programming problem and find graphically the minimum cost for diet that consists of mixture of these foods and also meets the mineral nutritional requirements

A cooperative society of farmers has 50 hectares of land to grow two crops X and Y. The profits from crops X and Y per hectare are estimated as ₹10,500 and ₹9,000 respectively. To control weeds, a liquid herbicide has to be used for crops X and Y 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. How much land should be allocated to each crop so as to maximise the total profit of the society?
There are two types of fertilizers F1 and F2. F1 consists of 10% nitrogen and 6% phosphoric acid and F2 consists of 5% nitrogen and 10% phosphoric acid. After testing the soil conditions, a farmer finds the she needs atleast 14 kg of nitrogen and 14 kg of phosphoric acid for her crop. If F1 costs ₹6/kg and F2 costs ₹5/kg, determine how much of each type of fertilizer should be used so that the nutrient requirements are met at minimum cost. What is the minimum cost?
A manufacturer has three machine I, II, III installed in his factory. Machines I and II are capable of being operated for at most 12 hours whereas machine III must be operated for atleast 5 hours a day. She produces only two items M and N each requiring the use of all the three machines.

A manufacturer considers that men and women workers are equally efficient and so he pays them at the same rate. He has 30 and 17 units of workers (male and female) and capital respectively, which he uses to produce two types of goods A and B. To produce one unit of A, 2 workers and 3 units of capital are required while 3 workers and 1 unit of capital is required to produce one unit of B. If A and B are priced at ₹100 and ₹120 per unit respectively, how should he use his resources to maximise the total revenue? Form the above as an LPP and solve graphically. Do you agree with this view of the manufacturer that men and women workers are equally efficient and so should be paid at the same rate?
