Question 330597: •Model A takes 2 hours to assemble.
•Model B takes 3 hours to assemble.
•Model A costs $25 to make per bike.
•Model B costs $30 to make per bike.
If your company has a total of 34 hours and $350 available per day for these two models, how many of each model can be made in a day?
•Solve the equations for the different bicycle models that can be made daily with the desired technique learned (graphing, substitution, elimination, and matrix).
•Explain how to check your solution for both equations.

The company could assemble any combination of A and B within the blue box with vertices:(0,0),(0,34/3),(2,10),(14,0).
As an example,  ,  would work. However they would have hours and money left over.
If they want to use exactly $350 and 34 hours, then the only solution is ,
