A company produces two types of tables, glass and wood. For each glass table, it takes 2 hours to build the parts and 1 hour to assemble. For each wood table, it takes 4 hours to build the parts and 2.5 hours to assemble. Per month, 7000 hours are available for producing the parts and 4000 hours for assembling the parts. The profit per glass table is $90 and per wood table is $110. How many of each type of tables should be produced in order to maximize the profit? P = 90x + 110y
