Blackjack Company is a local producer of Black shampoo.  The company wants to determine the production mix that will yield the maximum profit.  The production process takes 5 minutes to mix 1 case of men's shampoo and 10 minutes to mix 1 case of women's shampoo.  This process is done for 100 minutes per day.    It takes 7 minutes to bottle 1 case of men's shampoo and 7 minutes to bottle 1 case of women's shampoo.  Eighty four minutes is consumed for the bottling process per day.    It takes 9 minutes to pack 1 case of men's shampoo anf 5 minutes to pack 1 case of women's shampoo. The total number of minutes available for the packing process is 90 minutes.   The company earns P60 for every case of men's shampoo and P80 for women's shampoo. You are required to peform these steps: Tabulate the data and statement variables. Formulate the objective function and constraints. Graph the objective functions by first converting the inequalities into equations. Then, find their intercepts. Maximize the objective function. Make the decision.
