totally hip chairs: sling chairs, Adirondack chairs and hammocks. The unit profit for each of these
products is $35.00,$75.00 and $100, respectively. Each type of chair requires cutting, assembly,
and finishing time. The owner is retired, but she is willing to work 120 hours per month. She does
not want to work more than 50 hours per month doing any one of the specific activities, cutting,
assembly or finishing. These chairs are very popular in Crozet, so as usual she can sell all she
makes. Sling chairs require 30 minutes for cutting, assembly requires 45 minutes, and finishing

and 1 hour to finish. How many of each chair should the owner make to maximize profit? (hint:
