6. Savannah is making pots and plates to sell at a local art fair. Each pot weighs 2 pounds and each plate weighs 1 pound. Savannah cannot carry more than 50 pounds to the fair. She only has enough clay to make 40 plates. In addition, she only has enough clay to make 24 pots. She will make $12 profit on every plate and $25 for every pot that she sells. How many pots and how many plates should Savannah make to maximize her profit?
