You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1.Construct a model to calculate profit:
A product costs $10 to produce and sells for $25
P(x) = 25x-10x
P(x) = 15x
-----------------------
5. Add the constraint – It take 10 pounds of tin to make 1 product; You have 80 pounds of tin available (and solve for x)
Comment:: What is the unit cost of the tin??
