2. A manufacturer makes two products; picnic tables and benches, which must
be processed through two machine centers. MC1 has up to 60 hours available.
MC2 can handle up 48 hours of work. Each picnic table requires four (4) hours
in MC1 and two (2) hours in MC2. Each bench takes two (2) hours in MC1 and
four(4) hours in MC2. If profit is P80/picnic table and P60/bench, determine the
best possible contribution of picnic tables and benches to produce and sell in
order to realize the maximum profit.
Required:
1. Determine the decision variables. (2 points)
Let x = picnic tables
Let y = benches
4x + 2y =60
4(12) + 2(6) =60
48+12 = 60
60=60
2x + 4y =48
2(12) + 4(6) =48
24+24= 48
48=48
The best possible contribution of picnic tables and benches to produce and sell
in order to realize the maximum profit is 12 and 6, respectively.
5. Construct a graph and compute for the vertices. (5 points)
For equation:
4x + 2y ≤60
4x + 2y =60
If x = 0
4(0) + 2y =60
2y =60
