- 1. (30 pts.) A company that manufactures three products, A, B, and C, using three machines, M1, M2, and M3, wants to determine the optimal production schedule that maximizes the total profit. Product has to be processed by machines M1, M2, and M3, product B requires M1 and M3, while product Crequires M1 and M2. The unit profits on the three products are $4, $2, and $5, respectively. The following linear program is formulated to determine the optimal product mix: Maximize Z=4x+2x2+5x3 5.L x+2x2+ x ≤430 (Machine 1) 3x + 2x ≤ 460 (Machine 2) x+4x2 ≤450 (Machine 3) and 11.12.20 where x1, x2, and xs are the amounts of products A. B, and C and the constraints reflect the available capacities of M1, M2, and M3. The optimum solution for the problem is as follows: optimal solution: -0, -100, x-230 optimal value: maximum profit, Z=1350 shadow prices: 1.0, 2.0, and 0.0 for constraints 1, 2 and 3 respectively reduced costs: for x 3.0, for x = 0, for x)=0 RANGES ON RIGHT-HAND-SIDE (RHS) CONSTRAINTS…arrow_forwardWheelan's Chapter 9, 'Keeping Score'arrow_forward3. a.
