A gardener has a supply of fertilizers of the type one which consist of nitrogen and phosphoric acid, and of the type two which consist of nitrogen and phosphoric acid. After testing the soil condition, he finds that he needs at least of nitrogen and of phosphoric acid for his crop. If the type one fertilizer costs paise per and the type two fertilizer costs paise per , determine how many grams of each type of fertilizer should be used so that the nutrient requirement are met at a minimum cost. What is the minimum cost?

A company makes two products ( and ) using two machines ( and ). Each unit of that is produced requires minutes processing time on machine and minutes processing time on machine . Each unit of that is produced requires minutes processing time on machine and minutes processing time on machine . At the start of the current week there are units of and units of in stock. Available processing time on machine is forecast to be hours and on machine is forecast to be hours. The demand for in the current week is forecast to be units and for is forecast to be units. Company policy is to maximize the combined sum of the units of and the units of in stock at the end of the week. Formulate the problem of deciding how much of each product to make in the current week as a linear program. Solve this linear program graphically

It takes hour to make a bracelet and half an hour to make a necklace. The maximum number of hours available per day is . If the profit on a necklace is and that on a bracelet is , how many of each should be produced daily to maximize the profit? It is being given that at least one of each must be produced.
