The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to construct a Linear Programming Problem (LPP) based on the given constraints and then find the optimal solution. Let's break it down step by step. ### Step 1: Define the Variables Let: - \( x \) = number of units of product X - \( y \) = number of units of product Y ### Step 2: Formulate the Constraints From the problem statement, we have the following constraints: 1. **Investment Constraint**: The total cost of products X and Y should not exceed ₹1,00,000. \[ 2500x + 1000y \leq 100000 \] 2. **Storage Constraint**: The total number of units of products X and Y should not exceed 80. \[ x + y \leq 80 \] 3. **Non-negativity Constraints**: The number of units cannot be negative. \[ x \geq 0, \quad y \geq 0 \] ### Step 3: Rewrite the Constraints We can simplify the investment constraint: \[ 2500x + 1000y \leq 100000 \] Dividing the entire inequality by 500 gives: \[ 5x + 2y \leq 200 \] So, our constraints are now: 1. \( 5x + 2y \leq 200 \) 2. \( x + y \leq 80 \) 3. \( x \geq 0 \) 4. \( y \geq 0 \) ### Step 4: Graph the Constraints To find the feasible region, we will graph the inequalities. 1. **For \( x + y = 80 \)**: - If \( x = 0 \), then \( y = 80 \) (Point A: (0, 80)) - If \( y = 0 \), then \( x = 80 \) (Point B: (80, 0)) 2. **For \( 5x + 2y = 200 \)**: - If \( y = 0 \), then \( x = 40 \) (Point C: (40, 0)) - If \( x = 0 \), then \( y = 100 \) (Point D: (0, 100)) ### Step 5: Identify the Feasible Region The feasible region is the area where all constraints overlap, bounded by the lines we have drawn. ### Step 6: Find the Corner Points The corner points of the feasible region are: 1. Point A: (0, 80) 2. Point B: (80, 0) 3. Point C: (40, 0) 4. Point D: (0, 100) To find the intersection of the lines \( x + y = 80 \) and \( 5x + 2y = 200 \): - From \( x + y = 80 \), we can express \( y = 80 - x \). - Substitute into \( 5x + 2(80 - x) = 200 \): \[ 5x + 160 - 2x = 200 \implies 3x = 40 \implies x = \frac{40}{3} \] - Substitute \( x \) back to find \( y \): \[ y = 80 - \frac{40}{3} = \frac{240 - 40}{3} = \frac{200}{3} \] Thus, the intersection point is: \[ \left(\frac{40}{3}, \frac{200}{3}\right) \] ### Step 7: Evaluate the Objective Function Since we are not provided with an objective function to maximize or minimize, we can evaluate the feasible points: 1. (0, 80) 2. (80, 0) 3. \(\left(\frac{40}{3}, \frac{200}{3}\right)\) ### Conclusion The possible solutions are: - Purchase 0 units of X and 80 units of Y. - Purchase 40 units of X and 0 units of Y.
