13 Answer the whole of this question on a single sheet of graph paper. Mr F. 1ve manufactures tables and chairs using softwood and hardwood. ; A-table requires 5 metres of softwood and 3 metres of hardwood. A chair requires 3 metres of softweod and 4 metres of hardwood. Mr Hove has 45 metres of softwood and 48 metres of hardwood. Let x be the number of tables made and be the number of chairs made.(2) Using the above information. write down two inequalities other than x > 0
and y > 0 in x and y, which satisfy these conditions. [4]
(b) In order for Mr Hove to make a profit, he should manufacture more than
2 tables and at least 4 chairs, Write down two inequalities. one in x
and the other one in y, which satisfy these conditions. (3
(ce) The point (x; y) represents x tables and ยป chairs manufactured. Using
a scale of 2 cm to represent 2 tables on the horizontal axis and 2 cm to
2 chairs on the vertical axis, draw the axes for
Osxsl6and0<y<l6.
Indicate clearly by shading the UNWANTED regions. the region in
which (x:3'} should lie. (41
(d Use your graph to write down all possible combinations which give the
maximum number of tables and chairs manufactured. 12]
