Superbats makes two kinds of bats.
\n" ); document.write( " The wallbanger takes 8 hours to trim and turn on and 2 hours to finish. it has a profit of 17 dollars.
\n" ); document.write( "the dingbat takes five hours to trim and turn on and 5 hours to finish. it has a profit of 29 dollars.
\n" ); document.write( "the total time per day available is in 80 hours.
\n" ); document.write( " there are 50 hours available for finishing.
\n" ); document.write( "Comment: This combination of hours may be incorrect.
\n" ); document.write( "It implies 50 hrs for finishing and 30 hours for trim and turn.
\n" ); document.write( "The result is an indeterminate solution area as you can see
\n" ); document.write( "below.

\n" ); document.write( "what combination of bats will maximize profit
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Let w be the # of wallbangers produced
\n" ); document.write( "Let d be the # of dingbats produced
\n" ); document.write( "w>=0 ; d>=0
\n" ); document.write( "Trim/turn Equation: 8w+5d<=80-50=30
\n" ); document.write( "Finish Equation: 2w+5d<=50
\n" ); document.write( "Profit Equation: P=17w+29d
\n" ); document.write( "=======================================
\n" ); document.write( "Solve each inequality for w, as follows:
\n" ); document.write( "w<=(-5/8)d+15/4
\n" ); document.write( "w<=(-5/2)d+25
\n" ); document.write( "==============================
\n" ); document.write( "Graph the inequalities in the 1st quadrant:
\n" ); document.write( "\"graph%28600%2C400%2C-5%2C30%2C-5%2C30%2C%28-5%2F8%29x%2B%2815%2F4%29%2C%28-5%2F2%29x%2B25%29\"
