    Unit 2 – Lesson 3 Activity

    Completely solve the following LPP graphically:


    1. Max Z = 50X + 120Y
    Subject to :
    100X + 200Y ≤ 10,000
    10X + 30Y ≤ 1200
    X + Y ≤ 110
    X ≥ 0, Y ≥ 0

    2. Armour Corporation makes household cleansers in two strengths: weak and


    strong. Each gallon of the weak cleanser contains 1 liter of acid solution and 10
    grams of emulsifier. Each gallon of the strong cleanser contains 2 liters of acid
    and 30 grams of emulsifiers. According to contracts the corporation has signed
    with its suppliers, Armour Corporation must use at least 40 liters of acid solution
    and 450 grams of emulsifiers each week. It costs the company P25 to make a
    gallon of weak cleanser and P30 to make each gallon of strong cleanser. How
    many gallons of each should the firm make each week in order to minimize its
    costs?
