Question
(b) A factory makes three types of furniture: A, B, and C. Each furniture requires the
services of three sections. The cutting, assembly and packaging sections have available
a maximum of 60, 80, and 50 labour-hours per week, respectively. For furniture A, it
takes 2 hours in cutting section, 2 hours in assembly and 4 hours in packaging.
Meanwhile for furniture B, it takes 2 hours in cutting section, 3 hours in assembly and
2 hours in packaging. Furniture C takes 3 hours in cutting section, 4 hours in assembly
and an hour in packaging.
Write the system of linear equations. Hence, determine how much furniture of each
type must be produced each week for the factory to operate at full capacity using
Cramer's rule.
