$A$ manufacturer of electronic circuits has a stock of $200$ resistors,$120$ transistors and $150$ capacitors and is required to produce two types of circuits $A$ and $B$. Type $A$ requires $20$ resistors,$10$ transistors and $10$ capacitors. Type $B$ requires $10$ resistors,$20$ transistors and $30$ capacitors. If the profit on type $A$ circuit is $Rs. 50$ and that on type $B$ circuit is $Rs. 60$,formulate this problem as a $LPP$ so that the manufacturer can maximize his profit.

Let the manufacturer produce $x$ units of type $A$ circuits and $y$ units of type $B$ circuits.
From the given information,we have the following corresponding constraint table:
Component Type $A$ $(x)$ Type $B$ $(y)$ Maximum Stock
Resistors $20$ $10$ $200$
Transistors $10$ $20$ $120$
Capacitors $10$ $30$ $150$
Profit $Rs. 50$ $Rs. 60$ -

Thus,the objective function for profit is $Z = 50x + 60y$.
Now,we have the following mathematical model for the given problem:
Maximize $Z = 50x + 60y$
Subject to the constraints:
$20x + 10y \leq 200$ (Resistors constraint) $\Rightarrow 2x + y \leq 20$
$10x + 20y \leq 120$ (Transistors constraint) $\Rightarrow x + 2y \leq 12$
$10x + 30y \leq 150$ (Capacitors constraint) $\Rightarrow x + 3y \leq 15$
$x \geq 0, y \geq 0$ (Non-negativity constraints)
So,the $LPP$ is to maximize $Z = 50x + 60y$ subject to $2x + y \leq 20, x + 2y \leq 12, x + 3y \leq 15, x \geq 0, y \geq 0$.
