A company produces six assorted products, which can be sold to the public during the seventh
month of the year, due to the covid-19 issue, it is important to stablish a new production plan to fulfill
the incoming demand, the collected information regarding this demand can be found in the following
table:

Product #1 Product #2 Product #3 Product #4 Product #5 Product #6


Minimum 150 300 340 500 600 200
demand
Selling $360 $120 $450 $650 $120 $300
price

Additionally, it is known that for the incoming July, the first two products have a maximum demand
of 4500 each. According to the production manager, each product is manufactured with three raw
materials, A, B and C. the next table shows the amount in kilograms that are required to manufacture
each one of the product s and the total amount of raw material available for this production month.

Product Product Product Product Product Product#6 Available


#1 #2 #3 #4 #5
A 0.5 0.2 0.3 0.1 0.4 0.3 8600
B 0.6 0.4 0.25 0.3 0.8 0.1 4500
C 0.1 0.8 0.2 0.6 0.8 0.1 5500

Additionally, it is important to note that, it is possible to buy more kilogram of raw materials to
increase the total production, however, each kilogram of raw Material A costs $1200, each kilogram
of Material B costs $3000 and finally each kilogram of Material C can be bought at $4500.

Asumming that the company can only purchase a limited amount of the mentioned materials, (450
kg of A, 350 kg of B and 500 kg of C). develop a mathematical model based on linear programming
that can help the company to maximize their total profit.
