Solved linear programming exercises 1

In this video I will explain how to fix a linear programming exercise.

The statement of the problem is as follows:

"You have 600g of a certain drug to make large and small pills. The large ones weigh 40g and the small ones 30g. At least three large pickups are needed, and at least twice as small as the large ones. Each large pill provides a profit of 2 euros and the small one of 1 euro. How many pills of each class have to be made so that the benefit is maximum? "

Let us remember that the linear programming is optimizing, maximizing, or minimizing functions that are limited by certain constraints.

The Steps To follow to solve a linear programming problem, they are the following:

1. Identify the unknowns.

2. Write the objective function

3. Write the constraints as inequalities

4. Make a graph with all the equations and inequalities and find the feasible solutions.

5. Calculate the optimal solution.

In the video we will see a practical example to solve andlinear programming exercises. Also, if you are not sure you can continue practicing with problems of this type you can do the printable exercises with their solutions that I have left you on the web. Good luck in your studies!
