An apple pie uses 4 cups of apples and 3 cups of flour. An apple cobbler uses 2 cups of apples and 3 cups of flour. You have 16 cups of apples an 15 cups of flour. When you sell these at the Farmers market you make $3.00 profit per apple pie and $2.00 profit per apple cobbler.


Use linear programming to determine how many apple pies and how many apple cobblers you should make to maximize profit.


Let x=The number of apple pies you make. Let y=The number of apple cobblers you make Write an inequality to show the constraint on the amount of apples you have.


1a. Apple pie uses 4 cups and 3 cups of flour.


Apple cobbler uses 2 cups of apples and 3 cups of flour


You have 16 cups of apples and 15 cups of flour


Apple pie= $3.00, $2.00 apple cobbler.


X=apple pie, Y=apple cobbler


Write an inequality to show the constraint on the amount of apples you have.

Respuesta :

4x+2y<=16
3x+3y<=15

2x+y<=8
x+y<=5
3x+2y->maximize profit

X   Y    profit
