An aerolpane can carry a maximum of 200 passengers. A profit of Rs. 400 is made on each first class ticket and a profit of Rs. 300 is made on each second class ticket. The airline reserves atleast 20 seats for the first class. However, at least 4 times as many passengers prefer to travel by second class, than by the first class. Determine how many tickets of each type must be sold, inorder to maximise the profit for the airline. What is the maximum profit? Make an L.P.P. and solve it graphically.
