A: LINEAR PROGRAMMING
(Marks: 45)
1. (a) Is the solution 1
a basic solution of the equations
(b) Show that a hyperplane is a convex set.
(c) A factory is engaged in manufacturing two products – A and B which involve lathe work, grinding and assembling. The cutting, grinding and assembling times required for one unit of A and 2, 1 and 1 hours respectively and for one unit of B are 3, 1 and 3 hours respectively. The profits on each unit of A and B are Rs. 2 and Rs. 3 respectively. Assuming that 300 hours of lathe time, 300 hours of grinding time and 240 hours of assembling time are available, formulate a linear programming problem in terms of maximizing the profit on the items manufactured.
