b) A radio factory produces two different types of transistors, ordinary model and special
model. For greater efficiency the assembly and finishing process are performed in two
different workshops. The ordinary model requires 3 hours of work in workshop – I and 4
hours in workshop – II, while the special model required 6 hours of work in workshop – I
and 4 hours in workshop – II. Due to limited resources in skilled labour and materials only
180 hours of work can be done in workshop – I and 200 hours of work in workshop – II.
The factory makes a profit of Rs.30/- on each ordinary model and Rs.40/-on each special
model. Formulate the Linear Programming Problem by assuming that it can sell all the
transistors in order to get maximum profit?
