Question: 3 . Each coffee table produced by Kevin Watson Designers nets the firm a profit of ( $ 9 ) . Each

3. Each coffee table produced by Kevin Watson Designers nets the firm a profit of \(\$ 9\). Each bookcase yields a \(\$ 15\) profit. Watson's firm is small and its resources limited. During any given production period (of 1 week),8 gallons of varnish and 14 lengths of high-quality redwood are available. Each coffee table requires approximately 1 gallon of varnish and 1 length of redwood. Each bookcase takes 1 gallon of varnish and 2 lengths of wood.
The aim of the objective function for Kevin should be to the objective value.
Decision variables:
\( X=\) number of coffee tables produced / week
\(\mathrm{Y}=\) number of bookcases produced / week
Objective function:
\[
\mathrm{Z}=
\]
Subject to:
\[
\begin{aligned}
1 X+1 Y & \leq 8\\
1 X+2 Y & \leq 14\\
X, Y \geq 0 &
\end{aligned}
\]
On the graph on right, constraints \(\mathrm{C}_{1}\) and \(\mathrm{C}_{2}\) have been plotted.
Using the point drawing tool, plot all the corner points for the feasible area.
The optimum solution is:
\( X=\)(round your response to two decimal places).
\(\mathrm{Y}=\)(round your response to two decimal places).
Optimal solution value \( Z=\)(round your response to two decimal places).
