document.write( "Question 87272: A small firm produces both AM and AM/FM car radios. The AM radios take 15h to produce, and the AM/FM radios take 20h. The number of production hours is limited to 300h per week. The plant's capacity is limited to a total of 18 radios per week, and existing orders require that at least 4 AM radios and at least 3 AM/FM radios be produced per week. Write a system of inequalities representing this situation. Then, draw a graph of the feasible region given these conditions, in which x is the number of AM radios and y the number of AM/FM radios \n" ); document.write( "
Algebra.Com's Answer #63230 by favegirl13(22)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website!
