The XYZ Company, a company with only three employees, makes two different kinds of hand-crafted doors: a wood-framed and an aluminum-framed door. The company earns $30 profit for each wood-framed door and $15 profit for each aluminum-framed door. Doug makes the wood frames and can make 60 per day. Linda makes the aluminum frames and can make 40 per day. Bob forms and cuts the glass and can make 480 square feet of glass per day. Each wood-framed door uses 6 square feet of glass and each aluminum-framed door uses 8 square feet of glass. The company wishes to determine how many doors of each type to produce per day to maximize total profit.

Digital Imaging (DI) produces color printers for both the professional and consumer markets. The DI consumer division recently introduced two new color printers. The DI-910 model can produce a 4”×6” borderless color print in approximately 37 seconds. The more sophisticated and faster DI-950 can even produce a 13”×19” borderless color print. Financial projections show profit contributions of $42 for each DI-910 and $87 for each DI-950. The printers are assembled, tested, and packaged at DI’s plant located in New Bern, North Carolina. This plant is highly automated and uses two manufacturing lines to produce the printers. Line 1 performs the assembly operation with times of 3 minutes per DI‑910 printer and 6 minutes per DI-950 printer. Line 2 performs both the testing and packaging operations with times of 4 minutes per DI-910 printer and 2 minutes per DI-950 printer. The shorter time for the DI-950 printer is a result of its faster print speed. Both manufacturing lines are in operation…

A manufacturer of downhill and cross-country skis reports that manufacturing time is 1 hours and 4 hours, respectively, per ski and that finishing time is 3 hours for each downhill and 4 hours for each cross-crountry ski. There are only 16 hours per week available for the manufacturing process and 24 hours for the finishing process. The average profit is $62 for downhill ski and $92 for cross-country ski. The manufacturer wants to know how many of each type of ski should be made to maximize the weekly profit. Corner points of the feasible region: If there is more than one corner point, type the points separated by a comma (i.e. (1,2).(3,4)). Maximum profit is: $ when and downhill skis cross country skis are produced.
Next year, we’d like to grow our own tomatoes in a rectangular garden. To keep them safe from animals (and neighbours) we will need to fence in our tomato garden. We need to use exactly 242 square feet for tomato gardening. The north and south sides of the garden are largely protected by granite, so the fence can be shorter and costs only $2 a foot. The east and west sides are very open, will have to be twice as tall, and cost $4 a foot. What are the dimensions of the tomato garden with the least expensive fence?
