A kitchen manager at Western
Pangasinan District Hospital has to
decide the food mix for the patients.
1. Each patient must get at least:
a. one gram of protein
b. one grams of fat
2. The availability of protein and fat in grams per kg of chicken and rice is as given below:

Protein Fat Price/kg

Chicken
3. One hundred patients a day.
10 5 165 php
Rice 2 4 40 php
•Chicken
•Rice
Protein Fat Price/kg
Chicken 10 5 165 php
Rice 2 4 40 php

Let,
x – quantity (kg) of chicken
y – quantity (kg) of rice

C = 165x + 40y

The corner points provide the maximum and
minimum value of the function. As a result, the
optimal solution occurs at corner point (0, 25),
where x = 0 and y = 25.
