AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Create a linear programming example to visualize maximizing profit under inequality constraints. Draw the x and y axes, then plot two lines in the first quadrant to represent the inequality constraints, filling the area bounded by these lines and the axes to show the feasible region. Plot a quadratic or hyperbolic curve representing the profit function within the feasible region, identifying its intersection with the region as the optimal solution. Mark points on the x and y axes for material usage and product quantity, connecting them to the optimal solution to complete the illustration.
