The crew believes it will take 7 hours to clean the office of a lawyer and that the profit for doing so will be $19 per hour. It will take 10 hours to clean a doctor's office and that the profit for doing so will be $25 per hour. The crew can make 120 hours of labor available per day and does not want to cancel any of its existing house contracts. What is the best mix of homes and offices to clean per day to maximize profit?
