two machines, A and B. Machine A has maximum of 120 hours available and machine B
has a maximum of 180 hours available. Manufacturing a bicycle requires 4 hours on machine A
and 10 hours on machine B. Manufacturing a tricycle requires 6 hours on machine A and 3
hours on machine B. If profits are Rs. 65 for a bicycle and Rs. 45 for a tricycle, formulate
L.P.P. to maximize profit.

Q2. Diet for a sick person must contain at least 4000 units of vitamins, 50 units of minerals
and 1500 calories. Two foods F1 and F2 cost Rs. 50 and Rs. 75 per unit respectively. Each
