Question

A local bagel shop produces two products: bagels (B) and croissants (C). Each bagel requires 6 ounces of flour, 1 gram of yeast, and 2 tablespoons of sugar. A croissant requires 3 ounces of flour, 1 gram of yeast, and 4 tablespoons of sugar. The company has 6,600 ounces of flour, 1,400 grams of yeast, and 4,800 tablespoons of sugar available for today's production run. Bagel profits are 20 cents each, and croissant profits are 30 cents each. What is the objective function?

Answer 1

The objective function in this scenario is to maximize the profit by determining the profit for each bagel and croissant produced.

Step-by-step explanation:

The objective function in this scenario is to maximize the profit. To do this, we need to determine the profit for each bagel and croissant produced. Bagels have a profit of 20 cents each, and croissants have a profit of 30 cents each. We can then use this information to formulate the objective function.

The profit from selling croissants can be calculated by multiplying the number of croissants produced by the profit per croissant, which is 30 cents. To find the total profit, we add the profit from selling bagels and the profit from selling croissants.Let's represent the number of bagels produced as 'x' and the number of croissants produced as 'y'. The objective function can be written as: Objective Function: 0.20x + 0.30y
