1.A Company Is Appointed by TV12 To Make A Survey and Get Feedback On Its Television Programmes. The Following Conditions Must Be Satisfied

The document provides examples of linear programming problems from past SPM exam questions. It includes three sample problems involving constraints on survey participants, computer course enrollments, and sending students to a youth camp. For each problem, it lists the constraints, asks to write the inequalities and graph the feasible region, and find the minimum cost or maximum profit based on the graph. The key aspects covered are defining the constraints with inequalities, graphing the feasible region, and using the graph to optimize an objective function related to costs or profits.

feedback on its television programmes. The following conditions
must be satisfied.
I
At least 500 people surveyed must be from the rural
area.

people from the rural area
III The total number of people surveyed must not be
more than 1500.

conditions. 3Marks
(b) Using a scale of 1 cm to 100 people on both axes,draw three
lines which define the region
satisfying all three inequalities. Shade this region and labele

16.5 PAST YEAR SPM QUESTIONS


SPM 2005 Paper 2 Qn.14
An institution offers two computer courses, P and Q. The number
of participants for course P is x and for course Q is y. The
enrolment of the participants is based on the following
constraints:
I : The total number of participants is not more than 100.
II : The number of participants for course Q is not more
than 4 times the number of participants for course P.
III : The number of participants for course Q must exceed
the number of participants for course P by at least 5.
(a) Write down three inequalities, other than x 0 and y 0 , that
satisfy all of the above constraints.
3marks]
(b) By using a scale of 2 cm to 10 participants on both axes,
construct and shade the region R that satisfies all the above
constraints.
3marks]
(c) By using your graph from (b), find
(i) the range of the number of participants for course Q if the
number of participants for course P is 30.
(ii) the maximum total fees that can be collected if the fees per
month for courses P and Q are RM50 and RM60 respectively.
