As owner of your own cupcake company, you are excited to finally open your doors for business. There are a few things you need to consider to maximize your profit. In a typical day, you will sell no more than 140 vanilla cupcakes and no more than 120 chocolate cupcakes. Since you are working by yourself, you can bake no more than 150 cupcakes total each day. Each vanilla cupcake needs to be decorated with 6 candies and each chocolate cupcake needs to be decorated with 8 candies. You can only afford to buy 960 candies per day. You earn a profit of $2.00 on each vanilla cupcake and $3.00 on each chocolate cupcake. How many vanilla cupcakes and chocolate cupcakes must you make to maximize your profit?
