Question:
Use the following information in Problems. The national economy of Swiziland has four products: agricultural products, machinery, fuel, and steel. Producing 1 unit of agricultural products requires 0.2 units of agricultural products, 0.3 units of machinery, 0.2 units of fuel, and 0.1 units of steel. Producing 1 unit of machinery requires 0.1 units of agricultural products, 0.2 units of machinery, 0.2 units of fuel, and 0.4 units of steel.
Producing 1 unit of fuel requires 0.1 unit of agricultural products, 0.2 unit of machinery, 0.3 unit of fuel, and 0.2 unit of steel. Producing 1 unit of steel requires 0.1 unit of agricultural products, 0.2 unit of machinery, 0.3 unit of fuel, and 0.2 units of steel.
Determine how many units of each product will give surpluses of 1700 units of agriculture products, 1900 units of machinery, 900 units of fuel, and 300 units of steel.
