Problem:
Holiday Meal Turkey Ranch is considering buying two different
types of turkey feed. Each feed contains, in varying proportions,
some or all of the three nutritional ingredients essential for
fattening turkeys. Brand Y feeds cost P2.50 per pound. Brand Z
feeds costs P3.50 per pound. The rancher would like to
determine the lowest-cost diet that meets the minimum monthly
intake requirements for each nutritional ingredient. Brand Y
feeds contain 5 oz. of Vitamin A, 5 oz. of Vitamin B and 2 oz. of
Vitamin C. Brand Z feeds contain 10 oz. of Vitamin A and 5 oz. of
Vitamin B. The rancher specified that at least 90 oz. of Vitamin
A, 70 oz. of Vitamin B and 6 oz. of Vitamin C must be used. Used
the graphical solution to determine the answer.

 The objective Function is: Minimize: ZJ = 2.50x + 3.50
 The constraints are:
 Structural
 5x + 5y ≥ 90
 5x + 5y ≥70
 2x ≥ 6

 Non-negativity
 x, y ≥ 0

Step 4
Let x = 0 Let y = 0
5(0) + 10y = 90 5x + 10(0) = 90
10y/10 = 90/10 5x/5 = 90/5
y=9 x = 18
(0,9) (18,0)
5(0) + 5y = 70 5x + 5(0) = 70
5y/5 = 70/5 5x/5 = 70/5
y = 14 x = 14

5x + 10y = 90  (2) 5x + 10y = 90  10x + 20y = 180
5x + 5y = 70  (2) 5x + 5y = 70  10x + 10y = 140
0 + 10y = 40
10y/10 = 40/10

Step 6: #1
5x + 10(4) = 90  5x + 40 = 90  5x + = 90 - 40
 5x + = 50 5x/5 = 50/ 5  x = 10
