(ii) A standard weight of a special purpose brick is 5 Kg and it must contain

two basic ingredients B1 and B2. B1 costs ₹ 5 per Kg and B2 costs
₹ 8 per Kg.Strength consideration dictate that the brick should contain not

cost of brick satisfying the above conditions.Formulate this situation as an
LPP and solve it graphically.
