**Linear Programming Problem for Educational Website:** **Problem 6: Solving a Linear Programming Problem** The students in the Future Homemakers Club are creating casual and formal bags for a fundraising project. Both types of bags are lined with canvas and have leather handles. For the *casual bags*, the material requirements are: - 4 yards of canvas - 1 yard of leather For the *formal bags*, the material requirements are: - 3 yards of leather - 2 yards of canvas The faculty advisor has already purchased: - 56 yards of leather - 104 yards of canvas The profit for each bag type is: - $20 per casual bag - $35 per formal bag **Objective:** Determine the number of each type of bag to produce in order to maximize profits. **Tasks:** a. **Define Your Variables:** - Let \( x \) be the number of casual bags. - Let \( y \) be the number of formal bags. b. **Write the Objective Equation for Profit (\( P \)):** - \( P = 20x + 35y \) c. **System of Constraints:** - Leather constraint: \( x + 3y \leq 56 \) - Canvas constraint: \( 4x + 2y \leq 104 \) - Non-negativity constraints: \( x \geq 0, y \geq 0 \) d. **Graphical Solution:** - Use the graph provided to solve. Locate all vertices and show how tests are conducted to identify the solution that maximizes \( P \). **Graph Explanation:** The graph included portrays a coordinate system where: - The x-axis represents the number of casual bags (\( x \)). - The y-axis represents the number of formal bags (\( y \)). The feasible region is determined by the constraints. Each constraint line divides the graph into feasible and non-feasible regions. The vertices of the feasible region are where potential maximum profit solutions will be found.

Since you have asked multiple subparts, we will solve the first three subpart questions for you. If you want any specific question to be solved then please specify the question number or post only that question.

Given that:

Amount of canvas required for casual bags = 4 yards

Amount of leather required for casual bags = 1 yard

Amount of canvas required for leather bags = 2 yards

Amount of leather required for leather bags = 3 yards

Maximum amount of leather = 56 yards

Maximum amount of canvas = 104 yards

Profit on casual bag = $20

Profit on formal bag = $35
