Answer:
ok
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of type A surfboards to be ordered be x and the number of type B surfboards be y, then we have
Minimize: C = 272x + 136y
subject to: 29x + 17y ≥ 1210
x + y ≤ 50
x, y ≥ 1
From the graph of the constraints, we have that the corner points are:
(20, 30), (41.138, 1) and (49, 1)
Applying the corner poits to the objective function, we have
For (20, 30): C = 272(20) + 136(30) = 5440 + 4080 = $9,520
For (41.138, 1): C = 272(41.138) + 136 = 11189.54 + 136 = $11,325.54
For (49, 1): C = 272(49) + 136 = 13328 + 136 = $13,464
Therefore, for minimum cost, 20 type A surfboards and 30 type B surfboards should be ordered.
