A)2A + 4B $\geq $ 100
B)2A + 4B = 200
C)16A + 12B = 75
D)16A + 12B $\leq $ 75

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The constraint equation representing the materials available for the production processes is the one that limits the amount of vinyl available, which is 75 square meters per operating period. This constraint equation is represented by 16A + 12B ≤ 75, as each unit of A requires 16 square meters of vinyl and each unit of B requires 12 square meters of vinyl. Therefore, the best choice is D.
