A breakdown in fabrication causes the available hours to drop from 120 to 90 hours. How will this impact the optimal number of tractors and mowers produced?

What will be an ideal response?


Answer: x = 22.5, y = 15, Z = 1125, so profits will fall by $1350 - $1125 = $225. Students may also answer the question by determining the sensitivity range, which is from 60 to 180 hours, resulting in a profit change of 30 × $7.5 = $225.
