Because of new federal regulations on pollution, a chemical plant introduced a new, more expensive process to supplement or replace an older process used in the production of a particular chemical. The older process emitted 40 gramsof sulfur dioxide and 120 grams of particulate matter into the atmosphere for each gallon of chemical produced. The new process emits 5 grams of sulfur dioxide and 40 grams of particulate matter for each gallon produced. The companymakes a profit of 80¢ per gallon and 20¢ per gallon on the old and new processes, respectively. Answer parts (A) through (C) below.(A) If the government allows the plant to emit no more than 36,000 grams of sulfur dioxide and 90,000 grams of particulate matter daily, how many gallons of the chemical should be produced by each process to maximize daily profit? Whais the maximum daily profit? Summarize the model,MaximizeObjective functionsubject toV 36,000Sulfur dioxide constraintV 90,000Particulate constraintх, у 2Nonnegative constraintUnder the stated government regulations a maximum profit of $ is obtained by producingof product using the old process andof product using the new process.(Type integers or decimals. Round to two decimal places as needed.)(B) Discuss the effect on the production schedule and the maximum profit if the government decides to restrict emissions of sulfur dioxide to 22,400 grams daily and all other data remain unchanged. Use a similar process to obtain theconstraints for the new model.The maximum obtainable daily profit is now $ obtained by producing(Type integers or decimals.
