hello

to solve this question, let's get the datas down

to write the system of inequalities, first let's know the number of hours on each model

standard model = 6 hours to assemble + 2 hours for finishing touches

artisan model = 4 hours to assemble + 8 hours to assemble

available hours for :

a) standard model = 96 hours

b) artisan model = 112 hours

x = standard model produced daily

y = artisan model produced daily


6+2=8\text{hrs }

it takes 8 hours to make 1 standard model

in 96 hours, we'll have


\begin{gathered} (96)/(8)=12 \\ 8x\le96 \end{gathered}

next we find that of artisan model


4+8=12
12y\le112
