Unit 2: Linear Programming Problems

Step 2: Fix up the graphic scale. Notes
Maximum points = 2,000
Minimum points = 600
2 cms = 500 points

Step 3: Graph the data

Step 4: Find the co-ordinates of the corner points

Corner Points X1 x2
O 0 0
A 1,500 0
B 1,000 500
C 800 600
D 0 600

At ‘B’: x + 2x = 2,000 (1)
1 2
x + x = 1,500 (2)
1 2
x = 500
