Forming a differential equation representing the given family of curves by eliminating arbitrary constants a and b from yields the differential equation
Let number of souvenirs of type A = x
And number of souvenirs of type B = y
Therefore , the above L.P.P. is given as :
Maximise , Z = 5x +6y , subject to the constraints : 5x +8y ≤ 200 and. 10x +8y ≤ 240 , x, y ≥ 0.
Corner points | Z =5x +6 y |
O( 0 , 0 ) | 0 |
D(0,25 ) | 150 |
A(24,0) | 120 |
B(8,20) | 160…………………(Max.) |
Here Z = 160 is maximum.
i.e. 8 Souvenir of types A and 20 of Souvenir of type B; Maximum profit = Rs 160.
