Show transcribed image text Formulate but do not solve the following exercise as a linear programming problem A financier plans to invest up to $600,000 in two projects. Project A yields a return of 8% on the investment of x dollars, whereas Project B yields a return of 14% on the investment of y dollars. Because the investment in Project B is riskier than the investment in Project A, the financier has decided that the investment in Project B should not exceed 40% of the total investment. How much should she invest in each project to maximize the return on her investment P in dollars? Maximize subject to the constraints amount available for investment allocation of funds x2 0 Y 2 0
