Answer:
- 880 lbs of all-beef hot dogs
- 2000 lbs of regular hot dogs
- maximum profit is $3320
Step-by-step explanation:
We can let x and y represent the number of pounds of all-beef and regular hot dogs produced, respectively. Then the problem constraints are ...
- .75x + 0.18y ≤ 1020 . . . . . . limit on beef supply
- .30y ≤ 600 . . . . . . . . . . . . . limit on pork supply
- .2x + .2y ≥ 500 . . . . . . . . . . limit on spice supply
And the objective is to maximize
p = 1.50x + 1.00y
The graph shows the constraints, and that the profit is maximized at the point (x, y) = (880, 2000).
2000 pounds of regular and 880 pounds of all-beef hot dogs should be produced. The associated maximum profit is $3320.
