A furniture manufacturing company manufactures tables and chairs. A table
\n" ); document.write( "requires 8 labor-hours for assembly and 2 labor-hours for finishing. A
\n" ); document.write( "chair requires 2 labor-hours for assembly and 1 labor-hour for finishing.
\n" ); document.write( "The maximum labor-hours available per day for assembly and finishing are
\n" ); document.write( "400 and 110, respectively. If x is the number of tables and y is the number
\n" ); document.write( "of chairs produced per day, determine how many tables and chairs can be
\n" ); document.write( "assembled and finished. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Answer \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x = # of tables
\n" ); document.write( "y = # of chairs
\n" ); document.write( "Assembly: 8x+2y<=400
\n" ); document.write( "Finishing: 2x+y<=110
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "Rewrite each equation in slope-intercept form:
\n" ); document.write( "y<=-4x+200
\n" ); document.write( "y<=-2x+110
\n" ); document.write( "\"graph%28600%2C400%2C-10%2C50%2C-5%2C210%2C-4x%2B200%2C-2x%2B110%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Find the intersection of the two lines:
\n" ); document.write( "-4x+200=-2x+110
\n" ); document.write( "2x=90
\n" ); document.write( "x=45
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for y as follows:
\n" ); document.write( "y=-2(45)+110
\n" ); document.write( "y=20
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "Manufacture 45 tables and 20 chairs.
