Apply linear programming to this problem. A firm wants to determine how many units of each of two products (products D and E) they should produce to make the most money. The profit in the manufacture of a unit of product D is $100 and the profit in the manufacture of a unit of product E is $87. The firm is limited by its total available labor hours and total available machine hours. The total labor hours per week are 4,000. Product D takes 5 hours per unit of labor and product E takes 7 hours per unit. The total machine hours are 5,000 per week. Product D takes 9 hours per unit of machine time and product E takes 3 hours per unit. Which of the following is one of the constraints for this linear program? O 5D+7E=< 5,000 O 90+3 E=> 4,000 O 5D+7E = 4,000 O 5D+9E=<5,000 O9D+3E=< 5,000

Apply linear programming to this problem. A firm wants to determine how many units of each of two products (products D and E) they should produce to make the most money. The profit in the manufacture of a unit of product D is $100 and the
profit in the manufacture of a unit of product E is $87. The firm is limited by its total available labor hours and total available machine hours. The total labor hours per week are 4,000. Product D takes 5 hours per unit of labor and product E takes 7
hours per unit. The total machine hours are 5,000 per week. Product D takes 9 hours per unit of machine time and product E takes 3 hours per unit. Which of the following is one of the constraints for this linear program?
O 5D +7E = < 5,000
O 9D+3E=> 4,000
O 5D +7E = 4,000
O 5D+9E=< 5,000
O9D+3E = < 5,000
