Tarea 1. Linear Programming - Manufacturing Problem

The steel company must decide how to allocate its rolling mill time over the next week to produce either bands or coils. Based on current orders, the company can produce up to 7,000 tons of bands at 140 tons/hour or 6,000 tons of coils at 200 tons/hour using the 50 available production hours. The problem is to determine the optimal amount of each product to maximize total profit, where bands sell for $25/ton and coils sell for $30/ton. This can be formulated as a linear programming problem to maximize the objective function subject to production capacity and time constraints.
