It has orders for at least 200 kg of A and 100 kg of B, but can produce at most a total of 700 kg of the chemicals due to limited resources.

YOU ONLY WANT TO KNOW THE CONSTRAINTS ..OK..GOOD...LET US SEE..
THe question is "A chemical factory makes two different chemicals A and B and can sell all that it is able to produce.
SO NO CONSTRAINT ON THIS ASPECT
It has orders for at least 200 kg of A and 100 kg of B,
THAT IS IF QA IS TY. OF A PRODUCED AND QB IS QTY OF B PRODUCED THEN THE ORDER COSTRAINT SAYS
QA>=200.......................I
QB>=100.......................II
but can produce at most a total of 700 kg of the chemicals due to limited resources.
THAT IS IF QA IS QTY. OF A PRODUCED AND QB IS QTY OF B PRODUCED THEN THE RESOURCE COSTRAINT SAYS
QA+QB<=700.......................III
If the profit on A is $300 per kg and $400 per kg on B, how many kg of each should be produced in order to maximise profit? I need to know what the constraints are in this qestion plz
