Question: Dorian Auto has a $ 2 0 , 0 0 0 advertising budget. Dorian can purchase full - page ads in two magazines: Inside Jocks
Dorian Auto has a $ advertising budget. Dorian can purchase fullpage ads in two magazines: Inside Jocks IJ and Family Square FS An exposure occurs when a person reads a Dorian Auto ad for the first time.
The number of exposures generated by each ad in IJ is as follows: ads exposures; ads exposures; ads exposures. For example, ads in IJ would generate exposures.
The number of exposures generated by each ad in FS is as follows: ads exposures; ads exposures; ads exposures. Thus, ads in FS would generate exposures.
Each fullpage ad in either magazine costs $ Assume there is no overlap in the readership of the two magazines. Formulate an IP to maximize the number of exposures that Dorian can obtain with limited advertising funds.
IE
Let and respectively represent the number of adds in IJ and FS The number of exposures in IJ is given as
while the number of exposures in FS is given as
Then, the model becomes
the exposure
and are integer. domain restrictions
Notice that both and are nonconcave functions. In order to linearize the above model, we introduce three "copies" of and variables each, and control them via newly defined binary variables. The integer linear programming model is given as below:
max,
the exposure
linearization

linearization
and are integer. domain restrictions I couldn't really understand the solution can you explain please
