Q1. A bed mart company is in the business of manufacturing beds and pillows. The company has 40 hours for assembly and 32 hours for finishing work per day. Manufacturing of a bed requires 4 hours for assembly and 2 hours for finishing. Similarly a pillow requires 2 hours for assembly and 4 hours for finishing. Profitability analysis indicates that every bed would contribute Birr 80, while a pillow contribution is Birr 55 respectively. Find out the daily production of the company to maximise the contribution (profit). Solve the problem by graphical method. Q2. Maximise 1170x1 + 1110x2 Subject to: 9x1 + 5x2 ≥ 500 7x1 + 9x2 ≥ 300 5x1 + 3x2 ≤ 1500 7x1 + 9x2 ≤ 1900 2x1 + 4x2 ≤ 1000 x1, x2 ≥ 0 -Find graphically the feasible region and the optimal solution.
