QUESTION 2
A company wants to advertise a new product using Facebook ads
and Instagram ads. Each Facebook ad reaches 2000 people and
costs R50. Each Instagram ad reaches 1500 people and costs R40.
The advertising budget is R1 000. The company can run at most
22 ads in total.
Question: Determine the number of Facebook and Instagram ads
that maximizes the audience reached.
Choose the correct answer:
o a. 20 Facebook ads and 0 Instagram ads
o b. 22 Facebook ads and 25 Instagram ads
o c. 12 Facebook ads and 10 Instagram ads
o d. 34 Facebook ads and 16 Instagram ads
o e. None of the options
Let: • 𝑥 = Facebook ads 50𝑥 + 40𝑦 ≤ 1 000
• 𝑦 = Instagram ads 𝑥 + 𝑦 ≤ 22
𝑥≥0
𝑦≥0
Objective function: 𝑧 = 2 000𝑥 + 1 500𝑦

The vertices of the feasible region are @ (0; 0) , (0; 22) , (12; 10) ,and (20; 0) :
➢ For (12; 10) 𝑧 = 2000(12) + 1500(10) = R39 000
➢ For (20; 0) 𝑧 = 2000(20) + 1500(0) = R40 000
➢ For (0; 22) 𝑧 = 2000(0) + 1500(22) = R33 000
➢ For (0; 0) 𝑧 = 2000(0) + 1500(0) = R0
12 Facebook ads and 10 Instagram
ads are the objective plan that
maximizes the audience reached.
