6. – 7.  The Black Entertainment Television Company (BET) employs copy coordinators and

programming analysts.  According to company data, a copy coordinator reviews 5 scripts and 3

show schedules per day, whereas a programming analyst reviews 2 scripts and 7 show schedules

least 17 show schedules per day.  A copy coordinator makes $230 per day and a programming

analyst makes $190 per day.  The company wants to minimize daily labor costs.  Let x represent

number of copy coordinators and y represent number of programming analysts.
