document.write( "Question 758759: A manufacturing company makes two types of water skis, a trick ski and a slalom ski. The trick ski requires 6 labor hours for fabricating and 1 labor hour for finishing. The slalom ski requires 4 labor hours for fabricating and 1 labor hour for finishing. The maximum labor hours available per day for fabricating and finishing are 108 and 24, respectively. If X is the number of trick skis and Y is the number of slalom skis produced per day, write a system of linear inequalities that indicates appropriate restraints on X and Y. Find the set of feasible solutions graphically for the number of each type of ski that can be produced. \r
