Question
Food item 1 has 11 units of nutrient 1, 275 units of nutrient 2, and 17units of nutrient 3. Food item 2 has 2 units of nutrient 1, 875 units of nutrient 2, and4 units of nutrient 3. A human desires a constraint of at most 15 units of nutrient 1and 700 units of nutrient 2 among these two food items. How much of each food itemwould maximize the value of nutrient 3?

The standard model requires 5 hours to assemble and 1 hours for finishing touches. The artisan model requires 2 hours to assemble and 4 hours for finishing touches. Based on their current staffing, they can manage a maximum number of assembly hours available is 50 per day, and the maximum number of finishing hours available is 64 per day. Let x = the number of standard model bookcases produced per day and y = the number of artisan model bookcases produced per day. Write the system of inequalities that represents the maximum number of bookcases that can be produced in one day. 0 Graph the system of inequalities, remember to include x >0 and y > 0 in your graph to get full credit.
