Producing a bookshelf requires 10 boards and 18 screws. Producing a TV stand requires 7 boards and 16 screws. Each bookshelf yields $22 profit, and each TV stand yields $26 profit. There are 55 boards and 180 screws available. Find the number of bookshelves and number of TV stands to produce to maximize profit? Let X represent the number of bookshelves and Y represent the number of TV stands. What are the resource inequalities for the situation above? 10X +7Y ≤ 22; 18X + 16Y ≥ 26; X ≥ 0; Y ≥ 0 10X +7Y ≤ 55; 18X + 16Y ≤ 180; X ≥ 0; Y ≥ 0 10X+18Y ≤ 55; 7X + 16Y s 180; X ≥ 0; Y ≥ 0 None of the answers provided is correct.

In Example 3, if the accountant earns a profit of 100 on each individual return and a profit of 175 on each business return, find the maximum profit. An accountant prepares tax returns for individuals and for small businesses. On average, each individual return requires 3 hours of her time and 1 hour of computer time. Each business return requires 4 hours of her time and 2 hours of computer time. Because of other business considerations, her time is limited to 240 hours, and the computer time is limited to 100 hours.
