29. A cottage industry manufactures pedestal lamps and wooden shades, each requiring the use of a
grinding/cutting machine and a sprayer. It takes 2 hours on the grinding/cutting machine and 3
hours on the sprayer to manufacture a pedestal lamp. It takes 1 hour on the grinding/cutting
machine and 2 hours on the sprayer to manufacture a shade. On any day, the sprayer is available
for at the most 20 hours and the grinding/cutting machine for at the most 12 hours. The profit
from the sale of a lamp is Rs. 25 and that from a shade is Rs. 15. Assuming that the manufacturer
can sell all the lamps and shades that he produces, how should he schedule his daily production
in order to maximise his profit. Formulate an LPP and solve it graphically.
