Question: Looking at the Product Blend Example, what would the constraint look like if you needed at least 45% of Super Grade to be Component #2?

Looking at the Product Blend Example, what would the constraint look like if you needed at least 45% of "Super" Grade to be Component #2?

Remember, x; = barrels of component i used in motor oil grade j per day,

where i = 1, 2, 3 and j = s (super), p (premium), and e (extra).

So, X1e is the number of barrels of Component #1 used in the Extra grade oil, per day.
