A production manager wants to determine how many units of each product to produce weekly to maximize weekly profits.Production requirements for the products are shown in the following table.
 Product  Material 1 (lbs)  Material 2 (lbs.)  Labor (hours)  A324B142C5 none 3.5\begin{array} { | c | c | c | c | } \hline \underline { \text { Product } } & \frac { \text { Material 1 } } { ( \mathrm { lbs } ) } & \frac { \text { Material 2 } } { ( \mathrm { lbs } . ) } & \text { Labor (hours) } \\\hline \underline { \underline { \mathrm { A } } } & \underline { 3 } & \underline { 2 } & \underline { 4 } \\\hline \underline { \mathrm { B } } & \underline { 1 } & \underline { 4 } & \underline { 2 } \\\hline \underline { \mathrm { C } } & \underline { 5 } & \underline { \text { none } } & \underline { 3.5 } \\\hline\end{array}
Material 1 costs $7 a pound,material 2 costs $5 a pound,and labor costs $15 per hour.Product A sells for $101 a unit,product B sells for $67 a unit,and product C sells for $97.50 a unit.Each week there are 300 pounds of material 1;400 pounds of material 2;and 200 hours of labor.The output of product A should not be more than one-half of the total number of units produced.Moreover,there is a standing order of 10 units of product C each week.
