A linear programming problem has an objective function of 8X + 10Y. If the optimal solution provided by the model is to produce and sell 350 units of X and 1,000 units of Y, the expected return is:
A)$11,300.
B)$12,800.
C)$13,220.
D)$15,640.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Substitute the values into the objective function:

8(350) + 10(1000) = 2,800 + 10,000 = 12,800.

Therefore, the expected return is $12,800.
