DECISION MAKINGDecision Making Under CertaintyLinear ProgrammingHOMEWORK 1You operate a small wooden toy company making two products: alphabet blocks and wooden trucks. Your profit is $30 per box of blocks and $40 per box of trucks. Producing a box of blocks requires one hour of woodworking and two hours of painting; producing a box of trucks takes three hours of woodworking but only one hour of painting. You employ three woodworkers and two painters, each working 40 hours a week. How many boxes of blocks (B) and trucks (T) should you make each week to maximize profit? Solve graphically (using millimetric paper) as a linear program and confirm analytically.
