Do This Problem Right Now • Given Find the minimum and maximum for equation, (0, 8) (0, 2) (2, 0) (4, 0)
Section 3.4, Revised 2011 LINEARPROGRAMMINGDay 2
Steps for solving Real Life Linear Programming Problems • Solve • List all of your restraints • Determine your Objective Equation (usually dealing with Profit) • Find the x-intercept (y=0)and they-intercept (x =0)Use Cover-up methodto determine the intercepts • Use Elimination/Substitution to determine the intersection points of the 2 equations • Check
Example 1 A grocer buys cases of almonds and walnuts. Almonds are packaged 20 bags per case. The grocer pays $30 per case of almonds and makes a profit of $17 per case. Walnuts are packaged 24 bags per case. The grocer pays $26 per case of walnuts and makes a profit of $15 per case. He orders no more than 300 bags of almonds and walnuts together at a maximum cost of $400. Use x for cases of almonds and y for cases of walnuts.

The grocer should buy 9 cases of almonds and 5 cases of walnuts to have a maximum profit of $228.
Example 2 A school is preparing a trip for 400 students. The company who is providing the transportation has 10 buses of 50 seats each and 8 buses of 40 seats, but only has 9 drivers available. The rental cost for a large bus is $800 and $600 for the small bus. Calculate how many buses of each type should be used for the trip for the least possible cost.
