Develop and solve an all-integer model that will determine, using the available machine time, the number of units of each paper type to be produced in order to meet the weekly demand and to maximize the profit.

What will be an ideal response?


Let A = Number of units of Type A paper made
      B = Number of units of Type B paper made
      C = Number of units of Type C paper made
      D = Number of units of Type D paper made
