Since the decision variables are non-negative, the solution lies in the I-quadrant of the plane.Consider the equations
\({ x }_{ 1 }+3{ x }_{ 2 }=3\)
| \({ x }_{ 1 }\) | 0 | 3 |
| \({ x }_{ 2 }\) | 1 | 0 |
\({ x }_{ 1 }+{ x }_{ 2 }=2\)
| \({ x }_{ 1 }\) | 0 | 2 |
| \({ x }_{ 2 }\) | 2 | 0 |

The feasible region is ABC and its co-ordinates are A(3, 0) C(0,2) and B its the point of intersection of the lines
\({ x }_{ 1 }+3{ x }_{ 2 }=3\) ...(1) and \({ x }_{ 1 }+{ x }_{ 2 }=2\) ...(2)
Verification of B:
\((1)\Rightarrow { x }_{ 1 }+3{ x }_{ 2 }=3\)
\( \quad \quad (-)\quad (-)\quad \quad (-)\)
\((2)\Rightarrow { x }_{ 1 }+{ x }_{ 2 }=2\)
\( \quad -----------\)
\(2{ x }_{ 2 }=1\Rightarrow { x }_{ 2 }=\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \)
\( From(2),\ { x }_{ 1 }+\frac { 1 }{ 2 } =2\ \Rightarrow { x }_{ 1 }=2-\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \Rightarrow \frac { 3 }{ 2 } \therefore B\quad is\quad \left( \frac { 3 }{ 2 } ,\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \right) \)
| Corner Points | \(Z=3{ x }_{ 1 }+5{ x }_{ 2 }\) |
|---|---|
| A(3,0) | 9 |
| B\(\left( \frac { 3 }{ 2 } ,\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \right) \) | \(\frac { 9 }{ 2 } +\frac { 5 }{ 2 } =7\) |
| C (0, 2) | 10 |
Minimum of Z occurs at B(3/2, 1/2)
Hence, the solution is x1= 3/2, x2 = 1/2 and Zmin = 7
3.

Since the decision variables x1 ,x2 are non-negative, the solution lies in the I quadrant of the plane.
Consider the equations
\(-{ x }_{ 1 }+3{ x }_{ 2 }=10\)
| \({ x }_{ 1 }\) | 0 | 2 |
|---|---|---|
| \({ x }_{ 2 }\) | 10/3 | 4 |
\({ x }_{ 1 }+{ x }_{ 2 }=6\)
| \({ x }_{ 1 }\) | 0 | 6 |
|---|---|---|
| \({ x }_{ 2 }\) | 6 | 6 |
\({ x }_{ 1 }{ -x }_{ 2 }=2\)
| \({ x }_{ 1 }\) | 4 | 2 |
|---|---|---|
| \({ x }_{ 2 }\) | 2 | 0 |
The feasible region is OABCD and its co-ordinates are O(0, 0)A(2, 0) B(4, 2) C(2, 4) and D(0, 10/3)
| Corner Points | \(Z=-{ x }_{ 1 }+2{ x }_{ 2 }\) |
|---|---|
| 0(0,0) | 0 |
| A(2, 0) | -2 |
| B (4, 2) | 0 |
| C(2,4) | 6 |
| D\(\left( 0,\frac { 10 }{ 3 } \right) \) | \(\frac { 20 }{ 3 } \) |
Maximum of Z occurs at\(D\left( 0,\frac { 10 }{ 3 } \right) \). Hence, the solution is \({ x }_{ 1 }=0,{ x }_{ 2 }=\frac { 10 }{ 3 } \quad and\quad { Z }_{ max }=\frac { 20 }{ 3 } \)
4.
Using the precedence relationships and following the rules of network construction, the required network diagram is shown in following figure.

5.
(i) Variables: Let x1 be the number of days required to run plant C1 and x2 be the number of days required to run plant C2
Objective function: Minimize Z = 600 x1 + 400 x2
(ii) Constraints: 3000 x1 + 1000 x2 ≥ 24000 (since there is a demand of 24000 bottles of drink A, production should not be less than 24000)
1000 x1 + 1000 x2 ≥ 16000
2000 x1 + 6000 x2 ≥ 48000
(iii) Non-negative restrictions: Since be the number of days required of a firm are non-negative, we have x1, x2 ≥ 0
Thus we have the following LP model.
Minimize Z = 600 x1 + 400 x2
subject to 3000 x1 + 1000 x2 ≥ 24000
1000 x1 + 1000 x2 ≥ 16000
2000 x1 + 6000 x2 ≥ 48000 and x1, x2 ≥ 0
6.
(i) Variables: Let x1, x2 and x3 be the number of units of products P1, P2 and P3 to be produced.
(ii) Objective function: Profit on x1 units of the product P1 = 20 x1
Profit on x2 units of the product P2 = 25 x2
Profit on x3 units of the product P3 = 15 x3
Total profit = 20 x1 + 25 x2 + 15 x3
Since the total profit is to be maximized, we have to maximize Z = 20 x1 + 25 x2 + 15 x3
Constraints: 6x1 + 3x2 + 12x3 ≤ 200
2x1 + 5x2 + 4x3 ≤ 350
x1 + 2x2 + x3 ≤ 100
Non-negative restrictions: Since the number of units of the products A, B and C cannot be negative, we have x1, x2, x3 ≥ 0
Thus, we have the following linear programming model.
Maximize Z = 20 x1 + 25 x2 + 15 x3
Subject to 6 x1 + 3 x2 + 12 x3 ≤ 200
2x1 + 5x2 + 4x3 ≤ 350
x1 + 2x2 + x3 ≤ 100
x1, x2, x3 ≥ 0

EFT and LFT are same in the activities.
1 - 2, 2 - 3, 3 - 4 and 4 - 5
Hence, the critical path is 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 and the duration of project completion is 48 days .
8.
Let x1cakes of the one kind and x2 cakes of another kind are made. Let Z be the maximum number of cakes
| Ingredients | x1(g) | x2(g) | Total (kg) |
| Flour | 200 | 100 | 5 |
| Fat | 25 | 50 | 1 |
Thus, the mathematical formulation of the LPP is Maximize Z = x1+ x2
Subject to the constraints
\(200{ x }_{ 1 }+100{ x }_{ 2 }\le 5000\)
\(25{ x }_{ 1 }+50{ x }_{ 2 } \le 1000\)
\({ x }_{ 1 },{ x }_{ 2 }\ge 0\)
Consider the equations
\(200{ x }_{ 1 }+100{ x }_{ 2 }= 5000\)
| \({ x }_{ 1 }\) | 0 | 25 |
| \({ x }_{ 2 }\) | 50 | 0 |
\(25{ x }_{ 1 }+50{ x }_{ 2 }=1000\)
| \({ x }_{ 1 }\) | 0 | 25 |
| \({ x }_{ 2 }\) | 50 | 0 |

The feasible region is OABC and its co-ordinates are O(0, 0) A(25, 0) C(O, 20) and B is the point of intersection of the lines
200x1 + 100x2 = 1000 .... (1)
and 25x1 + 50x2 = 1000 ... (2)
Verification of B:
\((1) \Rightarrow 200{ x }_{ 1 }+100{ x }_{ 2 }=5000\)
\( (-)\quad \quad \quad (-)\quad \quad (-)\)
\( (2)\times 5\Rightarrow 50{ x }_{ 1 }+100{ x }_{ 2 }=2000\)
\(------------------\)
\(150x_{ 1 }=3000 \Rightarrow { x }_{ 1 }=20\)
\(From(2), 25(20)+50{ x }_{ 2 }=1000\Rightarrow 500+50{ x }_{ 2 }=1000 \Rightarrow 50{ x }_{ 2 }=500\)
\(\Rightarrow { x }_{ 2 }=10\)
\(\therefore B\ is\ (20,10)\)
| Corner Points | Z=x1 +x2 |
|---|---|
| O(0,0) | 0 |
| A(25, 0) | 25 |
| B(20, 10) | 30 |
| C(0,20) | 20 |
Maximum of Z occurs at B(20, 10)
Hence, the solution is x1 = 20, x2 = 10 and Zmax = 30.
9.
Since both the decision variables x1, x2 are non-negative, the solution lies in the first quadrant of the plane.
Consider the equations x1 – x2 = –1 and – x1 + x2 = 0
x1 – x2 = –1 is a line passing through the points (0,1) and (–1,0)
–x1 + x2 = 0 is a line passing through the point (0,0)
Now we draw the graph satisfying the conditions x1 – x2 ≤ –1; –x1 + x2 ≤ 0 and x1, x2 ≥ 0

There is no common region(feasible region) satisfying all the given conditions. Hence the given LPP has no solution.
10.
We find the feasible region using the given conditions.
Since both the decision variables x1 and x2 are non-negative, the solution lies in the first quadrant of the plane.
Write all the inequalities of the constraints in the form of equations.
Therefore we have the lines
x1 + x2 = 30; x2 = 12; x1 = 20
x1 + x2 = 30 is a line passing through the points (0,30) and (30,0)
x2 = 12 is a line parallel to x1–axis
x1 = 20 is a line parallel to x2–axis.
The feasible region satisfying all the conditions x1 + x2 ≤ 30; x2 ≤ 12 ; x1 ≤ 20 and x1, x2 ≥ 0 is shown in the following graph.

The feasible region satisfying all the conditions is OABCD.
The co-ordinates of the points are O(0,0); A(20,0); B(20,10); C(18,12) and D(0,12).
| Corner points | Z = 2x1 + 3x2 |
| O(0,0) | 0 |
| A(20,0) | 40 |
| B(20,10) | 70 |
| C(18,12) | 72 |
| D(0,12) | 36 |
Maximum value of Z occurs at C. Therefore the solution is x1 = 18 , x2 = 12, Zmax = 72.
11.
(i) Variables:
Let x1, x2 represents the first and second type of bonds respectively.
(ii) Objective function:
Let Z be the maximum return
\(\therefore \quad Z=\frac { 8 }{ 100 } { x }_{ 1 }+\frac { 10 }{ 100 } { x }_{ 2 } \Rightarrow Z=0.08{ x }_{ 1 }+0.1{ x }_{ 2 }\)
(iii) Constraints:
\({ x }_{ 1 }+{ x }_{ 2 } \le 70,000\)
\({ x }_{ 1 } \ge 10,000\)
\( { x }_{ 2 } \le 30,000\)
(iv) Non-negative restrictions:
Since the number of first and second type of bonds cannot be negative,x1, x2 ≥ 0.
Hence, the mathematical formulation of the LPP is maximize \(Z=0.08{ x }_{ 1 }+0.1{ x }_{ 2 }\)
Subject to the constraints
\({ x }_{ 1 }+{ x }_{ 2 } \le 70,000\)
\( { x }_{ 1 }\ge 10,000\)
\({ x }_{ 2 }\le 30,000\)
and x1, x2 ≥ 0.
12.
(i) Variables:
Let x1, x2 represent bags of brand P and brand Q.
(ii) Objective function:
Let Z be the amount of nitrogen. Since the amount of nitrogen is to be minimized, we have minimize Z = 3x + 3.5y
(iii) Constraints:
For Phosphoric acid,\({ x }_{ 1 }+2{ x }_{ 2 }\ge 240\)
For Potash, \({ 3x }_{ 1 }+{ 1.5x }_{ 2 }\ge 270\)
For Chlorine, \({ 1.5x }_{ 1 }+2{ x }_{ 2 }\ge 310\)
(iv) Non-negative restrictions:
Since the number of bags of brand P and Q, cannot be negative,\({ x }_{ 1 },{ x }_{ 2 }\ge 0\).
Here Mathematical form of the LPP is Minimize Z = 3x1 + 3.5x2
Subject to the constraints
\({ x }_{ 1 }+2{ x }_{ 2 }\ge 240\)
\({ 3x }_{ 1 }+{ 1.5x }_{ 2 }\ge 270\)
\( { 1.5x }_{ 1 }+2{ x }_{ 2 }\ge 310\)
and x1, x2 ≥ 0.
