1.

A company makes product A and product B. The following conditions apply:

  • The total production time must be at most 120 hours (product A takes
    2 hours each; product B takes 3 hours each).
  • The company must produce at least 15 units total.
  • Product B production is capped at 40 units.
  • Neither product can be produced in a negative quantity.

Let aa = units of product A and bb = units of product B. How many
constraints does this situation have in total (including non-negativity)?
