A company that operates 10 hours a day manufactures three products on three processes. The following table summarizes the
Unit
Product Minutes per unit Prices
Process 1 Process 2 Process 3
1 10 6 8 4.5
2 5 8 10 5
3 6 9 12 4

a. Determine the optimal product mix

b. Use the dual prices to prioritize the three processes for possible expansion
c. If additional producion hours can be allocated, what would be affair cost per additional hour for each process

ANSWER
Maximize : Z= 4.5X1 + 5X2 + 4X3
Constraint : 10X1 + 5X2 + 6X3 <= 900
6X1 + 8X2 + 10X3 <= 900
8X1 + 10X2 + 12X3 <= 900
X1, X2, X3 >= 0

Process 1 Process 2 Process 3

2. TCED at Ozark Community Collage offers a total of 30 courses each semester. The courses offered are ususally two types:
practical, such as woodworking, work processing, and car maintenance, and humanistic, such as history, music, and fine arts. T
The division estimates that the revenues of offering practical and humanistic courses are approximately 1500 and 1000 per cou
a. Devise an optimal course offering for the collage
b. Show that the dual price of an additional course is 1500, which is the same as the revenue per practical course. What does t
c. How many more courses can be offered while guaranteeing that each will contribute 1500 to the total revenue?
d. Determine the change in revenue resulting from increasing the minimum requirement of humanistics by one course

ANSWER
Objective function : Z = 1500X1 + 1000X2
X1 = Practical
X2 = Humanistic
Constraints :
X1 >= 10
X2 >= 10
X1 + X2 <= 30
So,
Z = 1500X1 + 1000X2 = 1500(20) + 1000(10) 40000

b) X1 + X2 <= 31 ------>>> Z = 41500

Practical -->> Z = 41500 - 40000 1500
So the profit is 1500

c) 27 courses

d) X1 +X2 <= 31 ----->>> Z = 41000

Humanistic --->>> Z = 41000 - 40000 1000
ered are ususally two types:
s history, music, and fine arts. To satisfy the demand of the community, at least 10 courses of each type must be offered each semester.
ximately 1500 and 1000 per courses, respectively:
