Answer:

Oatmeal cookies = 1 dozen

Sugar cookies = 7 dozen

Explanation:

Objective function:

Maximize:        P = 3x + 2y

where

                       x =  oatmeal cookies

                       y = sugar cookies

Constraints:

Since it takes 2 and 4 cups for oatmeal and sugar cookies respectively, and she has total 40 cups of sugar:

1)     3x+4y ≤ 40

The same for eggs:

2)     2x+y ≤ 20

She can make no more than 1 dozen oatmeal and 7 dozen sugar cookies:

3)      x ≤ 1

4)      y ≤ 7

Now graph these above four constraints equation( see the image below)

Now the corner points are :

(0,7), (1,7), (1,0), (0,0)

Put these corner points in objective function:

for (0,7) :  P = ( 3×0 )  + ( 2×7 ) = 14

for (1,7) :   P = ( 3×1 )  + ( 2×7 ) = 17

for (1,0) :   P = ( 3×1 )  + ( 2×0 ) = 3

for (0,0) :  P = ( 3×0 )  + ( 2×0 ) = 0

Since the maximum profit = 17 comes from the point (1,7), she should make 1 dozen of oatmeal cookies and 7 dozen of sugar cookies.

Inventions along early sea trade routes?
Andreas93 [3]

Besides silk, the Chinese also exported (sold) teas, salt, sugar, porcelain, and spices. Most of what was traded was expensive luxury goods. This was because it was a long trip and merchants didn't have a lot of room for goods. They imported, or bought, goods like cotton, ivory, wool, gold, and silver.
