Example 1: A clock maker makes two types of wood clock to sell at various malls. It takes him 3 hours to Assemble a pine clock, which requires 2 ounces of varmish. It takes 4 hours to assemble a molave clock which takes 4 ounces of vamish. He has 8 ounces of yarmish axailable in stock and he can work 12 hours. If he makes P100 profit on each pine clock and P120 on egch.20alaxs clock, how many of each type should he make to maximize his profits? Formulate the linear program. Solution: Following the stepe in formulating a linear pogram. we have: 1. Let x = number of pine clock Y = number of roolave, clock 2. Objective function MAXIMIZE: Pxofit.P100 x +P120 y 3.

Example 1:
A clock maker makes two types of wood clock to sell at various malls. It takes him 3 hours to
Assemble a pine clock, which requires 2 ounces of varmish. It takes 4 hours to assemble a molave clock
which takes 4 ounces of vamish. He has 8 ounces of yarmish axailable in stock and he can work 12
hours. If he makes P100 profit on each pine clock and P120 on egch.20alaxs clock, how many of each
type should he make to maximize his profits? Formulate the linear program.
Solution:
Following the stepe in formulating a linear pogram. we have:
1. Let x = number of pine clock
Y = number of roolave, clock
2. Objective function
MAXIMIZE: Pxofit.P100 x +P120 y
3. Constraints
Raw materials and process requirements like:
Vamish requirement
Processing time
4. Specific constraints
