The Whirlwind Corporation manufactures two electrical products: Ceiling fans and floor fans. The assembly process for each is similar, and both require a certain amount of labor and certain amount of wiring. Each ceiling fan requires 4 hours of labor and 2 feet of wining. Each floor fan requires 2 hours of labor and 3 feet of wiring. During the next production period upto 240 hours of labor is available and 180 feet of wiring is available. Each ceiling fan can be sold at a unit profit of $75 and each floor fan can be sold at a unit profit of $50. Whirlwind will have no trouble selling all the fans it has in its inventory, and also Whirlwind is interested in making the most profit it could make.

Set-up/solve the problem graphically. (How many ceiling fans and how many floor fans should be made?)
