Problem: Maximizing Car Sales Profits Using PuLP
Learn how to solve a car-selling problem in linear programming to maximize profits, given a set of constraints.
In this lesson, we will demonstrate the power of the PuLP library by using it to solve a real-life problem. Let’s consider a car manufacturing system where the manufacturer wants to maximize their profits. The following points summarize the problem:
- We have two models of a car: Car A and Car B.
- Car A gives us a profit of $20k while Car B gives us a profit of $45k.
- The designer takes 4 days to build Car A and 5 days to build Car B.
- The engineer takes 3 days to build Car A and 6 days to build Car B.
- The machine takes 2 days to build Car A and 7 days to build Car B.
- The designer, engineer, and machine can all work for 30 days.
