Consider the Following Linear Program, Which Maximizes Profit for Two

question 86

Short Answer

Consider the following linear program, which maximizes profit for two products--regular (R) and super (S):
MAX 50R + 75S
s.t.
   1.2 R + 1.6 S ? 600 assembly (hours)
   0.8 R + 0.5 S ? 300 paint (hours)
.   16 R + 0.4 S ? 100 inspection (hours)
