If a computer code is correctly programmed, it gives 90% acceptable results. But if it is not correctly programmed, it gives only 40% acceptable results. From previous experience, it is observed that only 80% of codes are correctly programmed. If after a certain programming, the code gives 2 acceptable results, then the approximate probability that the code is correctly programmed is

A manufacturing unit makes two models, 'classic' and 'supreme' of the scooter. Each piece of the classic model requires 9 labour hours for assembling and 1 labour hour for finishing. Each piece of supreme model requires 12 labour hours for assembling and 3 labour hour for finishing. For assembling and finishing, the maximum labour hours available are 180 and 30 respectively. The company makes a profit of ₹ 10000 on each piece of the classic model and ₹ 15000 on each piece of the supreme model. Which of the following options describes the given Linear Programming Problem (LPP) to maximize the profit Z (Max Z) (where x and y are the number of pieces of the classic model and the supreme model respectively)?
