Precision Machinists makes two grades of gears for industrial machinery: standard and heavy duty. The
process requires two steps. Step-1 takes 8 minutes for the standard gear and 10 minutes for the heavy
duty. Step-2 takes 3 minutes for the standard gear and 10 minutes for the heavy duty. The company's
labor contract requires that it use at most 200 labor-hours per week on the Step-1 equipment and at
most 140 labor-hours per week on the Step-2 equipment. The profit contributions are $15 for each
standard gear and $22 for each heavy duty. How many of each gear should be made each week to
maximize profits? Find the optimal solution using the graphical solution technique.
