Let x = software program
Let y = video game

x < 200 ; y < 300

x + y < 425

50x ; 35y

x = 200 ; y = 225
50(200) + 35(225) = 10,000 + 7,875 = 17,875

x = 125 ; y = 300
50(125) + 35(300) = 6,250 + 10,500 = 16,750

x = 175 ; y = 250
50(175) + 35(250) = 8,750 + 8,750 = 17,500

It is more profitable to maximize production of software program when working within the limits provided.

4 0

Answer:

0 < x < 200 ; 0 < y < 300

x+y≤425

Z=50x+35y

x=125;y=300

50(125)+35(300)=6,250+10,500=16,750

x=200;y=225

50(200)+35(225)=10,000+7,875=17,875
