$A$ wholesale merchant wants to start a cereal business with $Rs \ 24000$. Wheat costs $Rs \ 400$ per quintal and rice costs $Rs \ 600$ per quintal. He has a storage capacity of $200$ quintals of cereal. He earns a profit of $Rs \ 25$ per quintal on wheat and $Rs \ 40$ per quintal on rice. If he stores $x$ quintals of rice and $y$ quintals of wheat,then for maximum profit,the objective function is:

  • A
    $25x + 40y$
  • B
    $40x + 25y$
  • C
    $400x + 600y$
  • D
    $\frac{400}{40}x + \frac{600}{25}y$

$A$ dietician has to develop a special diet using two foods $X$ and $Y$. Each packet (containing $30 \ g$) of food $X$ contains $12$ units of calcium,$4$ units of iron,$6$ units of cholesterol and $6$ units of vitamin $A$. Each packet of the same quantity of food $Y$ contains $3$ units of calcium,$20$ units of iron,$4$ units of cholesterol and $3$ units of vitamin $A$. The diet requires at least $240$ units of calcium,at least $460$ units of iron and at most $300$ units of cholesterol. The corner points of the feasible region are:
