Problem 1) A tea packer blends Sri Lankan tea and Turkish tea to prepare two products: Noveltea and Royaltea. Each kilogram of Noveltea contains 0.6 kg of Sri Lankan tea and 0.4 kg of Turkish tea, whereas each kilogram of Royaltea contains 0.75 kg of Sri Lankan tea and 0.25 kg of Turkish tea. The packer has 130 kg of Sri Lankan tea and 150 kg of Turkish tea available. If the profit on each kilogram of Noveltea is 0.5 dollars and the profit on each kilogram of Royaltea is 0.4 dollars, how many kilograms of each type of tea should be blended to maximize profit? (a) (2 points) Set up a linear programming model for the following problem. Do not solve it. (b) (1 point) Find a feasible solution that yields a profit of exactly 100 dollars.
