Linear Programming Application
(1) An office manager needs to staff the office. She hires full-time employees at $18 per hour and part-time employees at $12 per hour. Write an objective function that represents the total cost (in $) to staff the office with x full-time employees and y part-time employees for 1 hr.
---
(2) Refer to 1. Suppose that the office manager needs at least 20 employees, but not more than 24 full-time employees. Furthermore, to make the office run smoothly, the manager knows that the number of full-time employees must always be greater than or equal to the number of part-time employees. Write a system of inequalities that represents the constraints on the number of full-time employees x and the number of part-time employees y.
"At least 20 employees" means .
"No more than 24 full-time employees" means
"The number of full-time employees must always be greater than or equal to the number of part-time employees" means or .
