Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A company produces two types of bicycles, A and B. Type A requires 1 hour of assembly and 2 hours of painting, while Type B requires 2 hours of both. If the company has 120 hours available for each task and wants to maximize profit from A ($40 each) and B ($30 each), formulate the LPP including decision variables, the objective function, and constraints.

💡 Hint: Analyze the time required for each task.

Question 2

A farmer has 200 acres of land to plant corn and wheat. Each acre of corn requires 1 hour of work, and each acre of wheat requires 2 hours. The farmer has 280 hours of labor available and wants to maximize revenue—corn sells for $300/acre and wheat for $400/acre. Formulate the LPP.

💡 Hint: Allocate labor hours against crop land limits.
