A manufacturing company produces two types of products called X and Y. Each product uses four different machines like lathe, drilling, grinding & milling operations. The profit per unit of selling X and Y are 7 RO and 3 RO respectively. Formulate a linear programming model with the given constraints to determine the production volume of each product in order to maximize the total profit (in OR).  Solve the following linear programming model by using Graphical method.         Subject to, 6X + 4Y ≤ 24                                                             X + 2Y ≤ 6  -X +  Y ≤ 1            Y ≤ 2 and X,Y ≥ 0

Formulate a linear programming model with the given constraints to determine the production volume of each product in order to maximize the total profit (in OR). 

Solve the following linear programming model by using Graphical method.        

Subject to,

6X + 4Y ≤ 24                                                          

  X + 2Y ≤ 6

 -X +  Y ≤ 1

           Y ≤ 2

and X,Y ≥ 0
