Question

Larry's Fish Market buys salmon (S) for $5 per pound and a local whitefish (W) for $3.50 per pound. Larry wants to minimize his cost, but he cannot spend more than $160. The objective function that minimizes these costs for Larry is:

Answer 1

Your answer is...

Explanation:5S + 3.5W <=160

Answer 2

5S + 3.5W <=160

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of minimizes these costs for Larry is shown below:-

Slamon Fish $5 per pound.

Local Whitefish = $3.50 per pound.

Assume Larry purchase of Salmon = S Pounds

and Local white fish = W

Larry cost spent of Salmon = 5S

Larry spent of White fish = 3.5W

Minimise Z = 5S + 3.5W

5S + 3.5W <=160

So, The cost condition is maximum.
