Problem 2 (12%): Three types of fertilizer are manufactured by a company--Regular, Supergro, and Ju Feeder. Regular should have at least 10 percent nitrogen and 16 percent phosphorous. S should have at least 12 percent nitrogen and 20 percent phosphorous, and Jungle Feeder sho have at least 15 percent nitrogen and 18 percent phosphorous. These are made by using two components-A and B. Component A costs $0.30 per pound and is 14 percent nitrogen and 1 percent phosphorous. Component B costs $0.50 per pound and is 20 percent nitrogen and 24 percent phosphorous. The demand for Regular is projected to be 1,000 pounds, while each of the thers has a demand of 2,000 pounds. Using the variables defined below to formulate the propriate objective function and constraints. Let X₁ X₂ pounds of component A in 1000 pounds of Regular pounds of component A in 2000 pounds of Supergro X-pounds of component B in 1000 pounds of Regular pounds of component A in 2000 pounds of Jungle Feeder Xs-pounds of component B in 2000 pounds of Supergro Xs-pounds of component B in 2000 pounds of Jungle Feeder Problem 2 (12%): Three types of fertilizer are manufactured by a company--Regular, Supergro, and Ju Feeder.
