A large sporting goods store is placing an order for bicycleswith its supplier. Four models can be ordered: the adult OpenTrail, the adult Cityscape, the girl's Sea Sprite, and the boy'sTrail Blazer. It is assumed that every bike ordered will be sold, and their profits, respectively, are 30, 25, 22, and 20. The LPmodel should maximize profit. There are several conditions thatthe store needs to worry about. One of these is space to holdthe inventory. An adult’s bike needs two feet, but a child's bikeneeds only one foot. The store has 500 feet of space. There are1200 hours of assembly time available. The child's bike need 4hours of assembly time; the Open Trail needs 5 hours and theCityscape needs 6 hours. The store would like to place an orderfor at least 275 bikes. (i). Formulate a linear programming model for this problem.(ii) Use solver to find the optimal solution.
