what varibales do i need to define and how do i use them to to write a linear program that optimizes revenue with this
constraints:
we have a ship that can carry a maximum weight of 100 tons of cargo and a maximum volume of 60 cubicmeters. we have three materials to be transported, and we may carry any amount of each, up to the maximum available limits given below:
·Material 1 has density 2 tons/cubic meter, maximum available amount 40 cubic meters, and revenue $1,000 per cubic meter.
·Material 2 has density 1 ton/cubic meter, maximum available amount 30 cubic meters, and revenue $1,200 per cubic meter.
·Material 3 has density 3 tons/cubic meter, maximum available amount 20 cubic meters, and revenue $12,000 per cubic meter
could you please explain me the steps, i am getting ready for an exam and need to understand this practice problem. thanks for your explaination in advance.
