Q1. A company manufactures two types of dolls A and B. The combined production level
of both the dolls should not exceed 1200 dolls per week and the demand for the dolls
of type B is atmost half of that of dolls of type A. Further, the production level of
dolls of type A can exceed three times the production of dolls of type B by atmost 600
units. If the company makes a profit of Rs. 12 and Rs. 16 per dall respectively on A
and B, how many of each should be produced per week in order to maximum the
profit? [BSEB 2009, 7]
Q2. A manufacturer produce nuts and bolts. It takes 1 hour of work on machine A and 3
hours on machine B to produce a package of nuts. It take 3 hours on machine A and 1
hour on machine B to produce a package of bolts. He earns a profit of Rs. 17.50 per
package on nuts and Rs 7.00 per package on bolts. How many packages of each should
be produced each day so as to maximise his profit, if he operates his machines for at
the most 12 hours a day. [BSEB 2010, 7]
