Kelson Sporting Equipment, Inc., makes two different types of baseball gloves: a regular model and a catcher's model. The firm has 895 hours of production time available in its cutting and sewing department, 300 hoursavailable in its finishing department, and 100 hours available in its packaging and shipping department. The production time requirements and the profit contribution per glove are given in the following table.Production Time(hours)ModelPackaging andShippingCutting and SewingFinishingProfit/GloveRegular model1$8Catcher's model$9Assuming that the company is interested in maximizing the total profit contribution, answer the following.(a) What is the linear programming model for this problem?
