A furniture manufacturing company manufactures dining-room tables and chairs. A table requires 8 labor-hour s for assembling and
2 labor-h ours for finishing. A chair requires 2 labor-hours for assembling and 1 labor-hour for finishing. The maximum labor-hours available p er day for assembly and finishing are 400 and 120, respectively. If x is the number of tables and y is the number of chairs produced per day, write a system of linear inequalities that indicates appropriate restraints on x and y. Required:
Find the set of feasible solutions graphically for the number of tables and chairs that can be produced.
If you do rise over run, then you will realize there is 5 block for 0.5 block on the line. It makes more sense if you take the line and make a triangle with the hypotenuse as the line. You will find that the width and length are not equal. If you do rise over run, you get 5/0.5 for both.
