Company A produces two kind of products, Alpha and Beta, each of which requires two stages of production: assembling and packaging. The company spends at most RM 8000 as assembling cost each week. The assembling cost for each unit of Alpha and Beta are RM16.00 and RM8.00 respectively. The machine time required 4 minutes to assemble a unit of Alpha and 12 minutes for a unit of Beta. The capacity of the machine is 80 hours per week. Each unit of Alpha or Beta required 6 minutes of packaging time. The total amount of packaging time used per week cannot exceed 60 hours. Profits per unit obtained from the sale of Alpha and Beta are RM 5 and RM8 respectively. (a) Formulate the above problem as a linear program to maximize profits. [5 marks]

(b) By using a graphical method, determine the weekly quantities of products Alpha and Beta to be produce to maximize profits. What is the amount of the maximum profit? [8 marks]
