(c) Determine the optimal solution to this problem by enumerating the corner points. (X11X2) = (90,30) -( (d) Suppose that Electrotech can acquire additional wiring time at a very favorable cost. Should it do so? 4. [10.72/25 Points) DETAILS PREVIOUS ANSWERS RAGSMDA9 2.E.018. MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER PRACTICE ANOTHER The Electrotech Corporation manufactures two industrial-sized electrical devices: generators and alternators. Both of these products require wiring and testing during the assembly process. Each generator requires 2 hours of wiring and 1 hour of testing and can be sold for a $250 profit. Each alternator requires 3 hours of wiring and 2 hours of testing and can be sold for a $150 profit. There are 270 hours of wiring time and 150 hours of testing time available in the next production period and Electrotech wants to maximize profit. Suppose that Electrotech's management decides that they need to make at least 30 generators and at least 30 alternators. (Let X1 = number of generators to produce and X2 = number of alternators to produce.) (a) Formulate an LP model for this problem to maximize profit (in dollars). MAX: z= 250-1 + 150-2 X Subject to: Wiring (in hrs) 2-1+3-2270 X Testing (in hrs) X1 +2.2
