Suppose we want to solve the following linear programming problem: The Going Home Club is holding another fundraiser, so they can finally (you guessed it) go home. They are selling brownie trays for $12 each, cakes for $15 each, and pies for $13. Each brownie tray requires 25 minutes of prep time, each cake requires 45 minutes of prep time, and each pie requires 20 minutes of prep time. The Going Home Club found a ton of bags of chocolate chips left over from their last fundraiser a month ago, so they want to make at least 80 brownie trays. On the other hand, they believe the cakes will be far more popular, so they want to make at least twice as many cakes as they do pies. With the size of the club, they believe they have 1000 minutes of prep time to spend on all the baked goods. How much of each type of baked good should the Going Home Club make in order to maximize their revenue? Which of the following is NOT an appropriate variable for this linear programming problem?
