Question

Write the word or phrase that best completes each statement or answers the question. Solve the problem.

Answer 1

Answer:

z(max)  = 2350

x₁  =  18          x₂  =  10

Step-by-step explanation:

                             Vol (ft³)         W (p)    Income ($)

Cargo A  (x₁)             50              200          75

Cargo B  (x₂)            10               360          100

Max load limit       1000            7200

Objective Function

z  =  75*x₁   +  100*x₂

Constraints:

Volume constraint:

50*x₁  +  10*x₂  ≤ 1000

Weight constraint:

200*x₁  +  360*x₂  ≤ 7200

Model:

z  =   75*x₁   +  100*x₂       to maximize

Subject to:

50*x₁  +  10*x₂  ≤ 1000

200*x₁  +  360*x₂  ≤ 7200

x₁  ≥  0        x₂  ≥ 0    x₁  and x₂  integers

After 6 iterations with an on-line solver optimal solution is:

z(max)  = 2350

x₁  =  18          x₂  =  10
