Each unit of a product can be made on either machine A or machine B. The nature of the machines makes their cost functions differ.
Machine A: C(x)= 60+x^2/6
Machine B: C(y)= 240+y^3/9
Total cost is given by
C(x,y)equals=Upper C left parenthesis x right parenthesisC(x)plus+Upper C left parenthesis y right parenthesisC(y).
How many units should be made on each machine in order to minimize total costs if
xplus+yequals=22 comma 65022,650
units are required?
The minimum total cost is achieved when
nothing
units are produced on machine A and
nothing
units are produced on machine B.
