Question:

A manufacturer of lightweight mountain tents makes a standard model and an expedition model. Each standard tent requires 1 labor-hour from the cutting department and 3 labor-hours from the assembly department. Each expedition tent requires 2 labor-hours from the cutting department and 4 laborhours from the assembly department. The maximum labor-hours available per day in the cutting and assembly departments are 32 and 84, respectively. If the company makes a profit of $50 on each standard tent and $80 on each expedition tent, how many tents of each type should be manufactured each day to maximize the total daily profit (assuming that all tents can be sold)?
