Production scheduling At one of its factories, a jeans manufacturer makes two styles: #891 and #917. Each pair of style 891 takes 10 minutes to cut out and 20 minutes to assemble and finish. Each pair of style 917 takes 10 minutes to cut out and 30 minutes to assemble and finish. The plant has enough workers to provide at most 7500 minutes per day for cutting and at most 19,500 minutes per day for assembly and finishing. The profit on each pair of style 891 is $18.00, and the profit on each pair of style 917 is $22.50. How many pairs of each style should be produced per day to obtain maximum profit? Find the maximum daily profit.

How many chainsaws should be manufactured in each production run in order to minimize the total storage and setup costsarrow_forwardBecause of new federal regulations on pollution, a chemical plant introduced a new, more expensive process to supplement or replace an older process used in the production of a particular chemical. The older process emitted 40 grams of sulfur dioxide and 120 grams of particulate matter into the atmosphere for each gallon of chemical produced. The new process emits 5 grams of sulfur dioxide and 40 grams of particulate matter for each gallon produced. The company makes a profit of 80¢ per gallon and 20¢ per gallon on the old and new processes, respectively. Answer parts (A) through (C) below. (A) If the government allows the plant to emit no more than 36,000 grams of sulfur dioxide and 90,000 grams of particulate matter daily, how many gallons of the chemical should be produced by each process to maximize daily profit?

- Solve the given LP problem using graphical method. A company is producing two products, cabinets, and chairs. Each of these passes through cuttingand assembly processes. A cabinet requires 4hrs in the cutting and 2 hours in the assembly. A chairrequires 2hrs in the cutting and 6hrs in the assembly. There are 600 cutting hours per week and 480assembly hours per week. A cabinet contributes Php800 profit while a chair contributes Php600. Howmany cabinets and chairs should the company produce to maximize its profit?arrow_forwardANSWER THE FOLLOWING A company produces two types of tables, T1 and T2. It takes 2 hours to produce the parts of one unit of T1, 1 hour to assemble and 2 hours to polish. It takes 4 hours to produce the parts of one unit of T2, 2.5 hour to assemble and 1.5 hours to polish. Per month, 7000 hours are available for producing the parts, 4000 hours for assembling the parts and 5500 hours for polishing the tables. The profit per unit of T1 is $90 and per unit of T2 is $110. Set T1 = X1 ; T2 =X2 ; Z=Profit Profit Equation would be: a. Z= 90 x1 + 110 x2 b. Z= 1.5 x1 + 2.5 x2 c. Z= 2 x1 + 3 x2 d. Z= 110 x1 + 90 x2 (2) The solution set of the system of inequalities are the following, except? a. x1+2.5x2≥4000 b. 2x1+1.5x2≤5500 c. x1≥0 d. 2x1+4x2≤7000 (3) How many of type A of tables should be produced in order to maximize the total monthly profit? a. 2,300 b. 2,750 c. 1,750 d. 1,500 (4) How many of type B of tables should be produced in order to maximize the total…arrow_forwardA laboratory uses 700 white mice each year for experimental purposes.
