children and total monthly collection is Rs.9000, whereas in batch II, it has 5 poor
and 25 rich children and total monthly collection is Rs.26000. Using matrix method,
find monthly fees paid by each child of two types. What values the coaching
institute is inculcating in the society?

26 A factory manufactures two types of screws, A and B. Each type of screw requires
the use of two machines, an automatic and a hand operated. It takes 4 minutes on
the automatic and 6 minutes on hand operated machines to manufacture a package
of screws A, while it takes 6 minutes on automatic and 3 minutes on the hand
operated machines to manufacture a package of screws B. Each machine is
available for at the most 4 hours on any day. The manufacturer can sell a package
of screws A at a profit of Rs.7 and screws B at a profit of Rs.10. Assuming that he
can sell all the screws he manufactures, how many packages of each type should
the factory owner produce in a day in order to maximize his profit? Determine the
maximum profit.
