Problem2 ACP. Able City Planning (ACP) is considering to design a pedestrian overpass. The company allocates 150 hours to complete the project. Three ACP designers are available for assignment to this project: Elisabeth, a senior designer and team leader, David, a senior designer and Suri, a junior designer. Management specified that Elisabeth must be assigned at least 40% of the total number of hours assigned to the two senior designers. To provide designing experience, Suri must be assigned at least 15% of the total project time. However, the number of hours assigned to Suri must not exceed 25% of the total number of hours assigned to the two senior designers. Elizabeth has only a maximum of 50 hours available to work on this project. Pay per hour are the following: $30 for Elizabeth, $25 for David, and $18 for Suri. ACP wants to minimize total cost of the project.
Provide decision variable(s) X1...Xn with notation identified and a Linear Programming Model to minimize the total cost of the project.
Provide the optimal solution and the corresponding objective function values. Write the optimal solution (the values of the decision variables) on first line of text and the value of the objective function at the optimal solution on the second line.
