Let number of bags of cattle feed of brand P = x
And number of bags of cattle feed of brand Q = y
Therefore , the above L.P.P. is given as :
Minimise , Z = 250x +200y , subject to the constraints : 3 x + 1.5y ≥ 80, 2.5x + 11.25y ≥ 45, 2x + 3y ≥ 24 , x,y ≥ 0.,
Corner points | Z =250x +200 y |
C(0 , 12 ) | 2400
|
B (18,0) | 4500 |
D(3,6 ) | 1950…………………(Min.) |
A(9,2) | 2650 |
Here Z = 1950 is minimum.
i.e. 3 bags of brand P and 6 bags of brand Q; Minimum cost of the mixture = Rs 1950 .
