Question 2 - Solution

The Excel solver found an optimal solution for a linear programming problem that maximized profit with variables of units produced of products x1, x2, and x3, subject to 4 constraints on resource usage. The optimal solution was to produce 32 units of x1 and 34 units of x3, with an objective value (maximum profit) of 660. The solver took 3 iterations and 0.016 seconds to find this optimal solution satisfying all constraints.
