3. A farmer has 20 hectares for growing barley and swedes. The farmer has to decide how much
of each to grow. The cost per hectare for barley is ₤30 and for swedes is ₤20. The farmer has
budgeted ₤480. Barley requires 1 man-day per hectare and swedes require 2 man-days per
hectare. There are 36 man-days available. The profit on barley is ₤100 per hectare and on
swedes is ₤120 per hectare. Find the number of hectares of each crop the farmer should saw
to maximize profits.
