 2. The Epsilon company produces tiles and tablets, which generate a profit
contribution of $5000 and $4000 per square meter respectively. For the
production of these articles, there is an availability of 200 square meters of sand
and 240 square meters of cement per week. How much of each of the items
should be manufactured, if it is known that to produce one square meter of tiles, 4
square meters of sand and 3 square meters of cement are required; while to
produce one square meter of tablet, 5 square meters of sand and 8 square
meters of cement are required? Also assume that the customer guarantees to
purchase at least 50 square meters of tablet.

 8.6. The Oruga company manufactures its product in 3 plants located in Bogotá,
Tunja and Cúcuta, in which there is a weekly production capacity of 150, 60 and
180 units respectively. The product is distributed through 3 distributors located in
Chía, Cali and Pasto for which a weekly demand of 150, 120 and 90 units
respectively has been established.
If it is known that the cost of transporting a unit from the plant from Bogotá to
Chía is $15, to Cali it is $12 and to Pasto it is $9; from the plant located in Tunja
to Chía it is $9, to Cali it is $12 and Pasto it is $6; while the same cost calculated
for the plant located in Cúcuta is $12, $18 and $15 respectively for the
distributors of Chía, Cali and Pasto; What quantity must be shipped from each
plant to each distributor to generate a minimum total transportation cost?

Data:

 3 plants (origin):  Distributors (destination):


 1) Bogota (150)  1) Chia (150)
 2) Tunja (60)  2) Cali (120)
 3) Cúcuta (180)  3) Grass (90)
 Total: 390  4) Villavicencio (30) Fictional.
 Weekly production  Total:390
capacity.  Weekly distribution capacity.

Solution:
X ij =¿ Quantity of product shipped from the planti to the distributor j .

According to the data given to solve this exercise, the solution is:
From the Bogotá plant, 120 products will be sent to the Cali distributor and 30 products
to the Pasto distributor. From the Tunja plant, 60 products will be sent to the Pasto
distributor. From the Cúcuta plant, 150 products will be sent to Chía and There will be
30 products left in this plant. The total price of transportation generates a cost of $3870
per week.
