Explanation / Answer

in the question it is being asked formulation of the above markeinng problem into linear programming.

FOllowing is te formulation as per the given conditions

Mximize (total potential customer reached) Z= 400000x1+900000x2+500000x3+300000x4

Subject to the constraints

(a)                 advertising budget constrain

40000x1 + 85000x2+30000x3+15000x4 =<700000

               

(b)                 number of women customer reached by the advertising compaign constraint

500000x1+400000x2+500000x3+100000x4>=1000000

(c)                 TV advertising constraint

40000x1 + 85000x2 =<500000

x1>=3

x2>=2

(d)                 radio and magazine advertising constraint

8=<x3=<10

8=<x4=<10

and                         x1,x2,x3,x4>=0
