A small company produces both doll houses and sets of doll furniture. The doll houses take 3 hours of labor to produce, and the furniture sets take 8 hours. The labor available is limited to 400 hours per week, and the total production capacity is 100 items per week. Existing orders require that at least 20 doll houses and 10 sets of furniture be produced per week.

What must your objective function be? Do you want to maximize revenues or do you want to minimize the production costs?
Anyway, whatever your objective function is, the constraints are as follows:
3X + 8Y ≤ 400
20X + 10Y ≤ 100
X > 20
Y > 10
Good luck.
