Step 1: Taking linear constraints and graphing them

A factory produces two types of rugby balls, type A amd type B. The nature of the factory is such that it places the following constraints on production:

a) The factory can only produce a maximum of 10 type A rugby balls per day.

b) The factory can only produce a maximum of 8 type B rugby balls per day.

c) The factory has a contract with a vendor which forces them to produce at least 11 rugby balls per day (of any kind).

d) Because of storage limitations, the factory should not exceed a total of 16 rugby balls.
