Question: Dolphin Technologies is launching two new hacking tools that allow users to perform all sorts of legal and practical jokes on other people's electronic devices.

Dolphin Technologies is launching two new hacking tools that allow users to perform all sorts of legal and practical jokes on other people's electronic devices. But since Dolphin Technologies is a relatively small company, and their labor-hours are very limited, so the management wishes to incorporate linear programming to determine the number of each of the two different products to produce in the next fiscal year. The following information concerns labor availability, labor utilization, and product profitability.

1.Develop a linear programming model to determine the optimal production quantities of Wi-Fi Jammers and TV Muters that maximizes the total profit.Using Lingo

2.To keep up with the market demands, Dolphin Technologies allows overtime for each of the two departments. The cost per hour of overtime for the Chip Manufacturing Department is $20, and $12 for Case Fabricating Department. Formulate a linear programming model can be used to determine the optimal production quantities if overtime is made available.

Product (hours per unit)
Department Wi-Fi Jammer TV Muter Available labor-hours
Chip Manufacturing 1 0.25 80
Case Fabricating 0.5 0.1 30
Profit contribution per unit $70 $30

Develop a linear programming model to determine the optimal production quantities of Wi-Fi Jammers and TV Muters that maximizes the total profit.Develop a linear programming model to determine the optimal production quantities of Wi-Fi Jammers and TV Muters that maximizes the total profit.
