Constraints

Monday: 8 (x1 + x4 + x5 + x6 + x7) + 4 (y1 + y4 + y5 + y6 + y7) >= 136 Tuesday: 8 (x1 + x2 + x5 + x6 + x7) + 4 (y1 + y2 + y5 + y6 + y7) >= 104 Wednesday: 8 (x1 + x2 + x3 + x6 + x7) + 4 (y1 + y2 + y3 + y6 + y7) >= 120 Thursday: 8 (x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 + x7) + 4 (y1 + y2 + y3 + y4 + y7) >= 152 Friday: 8 (x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 + x5) + 4 (y1 + y2 + y3 + y4 + y5) >= 112 Saturday: 8 (x2 + x3 + x4 + x5 + x6) + 4 (y2 + y3 + y4 + y5 + y6) >= 128 Sunday: 8 (x3 + x4 + x5 + x6 + x7) + 4 (y3 + y4 + y5 + y6 + y7) >= 88

y1 + y2 + y3 + y4 + y5 + y6 + y7 < = .25 (y1 + y2 + y3 + y4 + y5 + y6 + y7 + x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 + x5 + x6 + x7)

xi >= 0 and integer, where i=1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

yj >= 0 and integer, where j=1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
