I thank anyone who can help me with this. I've been so busy to the point where I can't concentrate, and now - with 2.5 hours of sleep behind me, I'm in need of completeling this problem by 7:40 AM
A toy manufacturer preparing a production for two toys, widgets and wadgits, must use the information concerning their construction times given in the following table:
...............Machine A....Machine B...Finishing....Profits
Widget(x)......2hr.............1hr.............2hr..........$4
Wadget(y).....1hr.............1hr.............3hr..........$6
AEHPW.....<=70hr......<=40hr......<=90hr
AEHPW = Available Employee Hours per week
For example, each widget requires 2 hours on Machine A and each wadgit requires 1 hour on machine A. The available hours per week, and the profits on each widget and wadgit are also given in the table.
You are to determine (1) how many of each toy should be made per week in order to maximize profit, and (2) what would the maximum profit be?
Any help would be so appreciated. I'm pitiful at math - even if someone could give me the Objective Function and the constraints, It would be tremendously appreciated.
