Question 938418: A company makes $25 profit from the sale of product A and $35 from the sale of product B. Each A uses 3 units of material and 5 units of labor
Each B requires 5 units of material and 4 units if labor. Let x be the number of A to manufacture and y be the number of B. Write the objective function and all the constraints necessary to maximize profit
If the company has 300 units of material and 400 units of labor available. Do not solve

Profit equation
P=25x%2B35y
.
.
General constraint
x%3E=0
y%3E=0
Material constraint
3x%2B5y%3C=300
Labor constraint
5x%2B4y%3C=400
