You can put this solution on YOUR website! Ozark Furniture Company can obtain at most 3000 board feet of maple lumber for making its classic and modern rocking chairs. A classic maple rocker requires 15 board feet of maple, and a modern rocker requires 12 feet of maple. Write an inequality that limits the possible number of rockers of each type that can be made, and graph the inequality in the first quadrant.
---------------------
Let "c" be the number of classic rockers.
Let "m" be the number of modern rockers.
INEQUALITY:
15c+12m<=3000, c>=0, m>=0
