Question 1: An economy depends on two basic products: wheat and oil. To produce 1 metric ton of
wheat requires 0.25 metric ton of wheat and 0.33 metric ton of oil. The production of 1 metric ton of oil
consumes 0.08 metric ton of wheat and 0.11 metric ton of oil. Find the production that will satisfy a
demand of 500 metric tons of wheat and 1000 metric tons of oil.
