Chapter 3, Problem 17RP

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Let x1  be the number of tables produced by oak and x2 be the number of chairs produced by oak.

Let y1  be the number of tables produced by pine and y2 be the number of chairs produced by pine.

Objective function:

Revenues=(costtable)(number of tables produced)+(costchair)(number of tables produced)

Maximizez=40(x1+y1)+15(x2+y2)

Considering the constraints,

Constraint 1: At least 150 board ft of oak is available

Constraint 2: : At least 210 board ft of oak is available

Expressing the constraint 1 in terms of x1, x2and x3 :

[(17 board ft of oak/table)(number of tables produced from oak)+(5 board ft of oak/chair)(number of chairs produced from oak)]&
