Alpha remote produces three models of satellite radios. Model A requires 25 min of work on assembly line 1 and 28 min of work on assembly line 2. Model B requires 20 min of work on assembly line 1 and 27 min of work on assembly line 2. Model C requires 24 min of work on assembly line 1 and 32 min of work on assembly line 2. At most, 30 labor-hours of assembly time on line 1 and 25 labor-hours of assembly time on line 2 are available each day. It is anticipated that Alpha remote will realize a profit of $23 on model A and $20 on model B and $25 on model C. How many satellite radios of each model should be produced each day to maximize the profit?
