    The document describes a linear programming problem faced by a company that produces bowls and mugs using clay and labor resources. The company wants to determine the optimal number of each product to make each day to maximize total revenue, given constraints on the available clay (120 lbs) and labor hours (40). It provides the resource requirements and revenue for each product, and defines the objective function and decision variables to set up the linear programming model.

    Answer
    The two primary resources used by the company are special pottery clay and skilled labour.
    Given these limited resources, the company wants to know how many bowls and mugs to
    produce each day to maximize revenue.
    The two products have the following resource requirements for production and selling price per
    item produced:
    labour (hr/unit) : Bowl : 1, Mug : 2
    Clay(lb/unit) : Bowl : 4, Mug : 3
    Revenue($ unit): Bowl : 40, Mug : 50
    There are 40 hours of labour and 120 pounds of clay available each day.
    Bowl Mug
    Revenue 40 50
    Clay 4 3 120
    Labour 1 2 40

    Define the objective:


    Maximize the revenue, Z
    Define the decision variables :
    x= number of bowls to produce
    y= number of mugs to produce
    Linear programming model for this problem:
    maximize
