The profit per night for each type of room and rental class is as follows. Rental Class Super Saver Deluxe Business Room Type I Type II $30 $35 $20 $30 $40 Round Tree's management makes a forecast of the demand by rental class for each night in the future. A linear programming model developed to maximize profit is used to determine how many reservations to accept for each rental class. The demand forecast for a particular night is 140 rentals in the Super Saver class, 50 rentals in the Deluxe class, and 40 rentals in the Business class. Round Tree has 100 Type I rooms and 120 Type II rooms. (a) Formulate and solve a linear program to determine how many reservations to accept in each rental class and how the reservations should be allocated to room types.
