For the Burger Office Equipment constraints and identify the feasible region. Burger Office Equipment produces two types of desks, standard and deluxe. Deluxe desks have oak tops and more expensive hardware and require addi­tional time for finishing and polishing. Standard desks require 70 board feet of pine and 10 hours of labor, whereas deluxe desks require 60 board feet of pine, 18 square feet of oak, and 15 hours of labor. For the next week, the company has 5,000 board feet of pine, 750 square feet of oak, and 400 hours of labor available. Standard desks net a profit of $ 225, and deluxe desks net a profit of $ 320. All desks can be sold to national chains such as Staples or Office Depot.
