To Calculate: How many of each size pizza must be sold in order to maximize the profit if a pizza shop makes $1.50 on each small pizza and $2.15 on each large pizza. On a typical Friday it sells between 70 and 90 small pizzas and between 100 and 140 large pizzas. The shop can make no more than 210 pizzas in a day.
The shop should sell 70 small pizzas and 140 large pizzas to maximize the profit.
Given information:
A pizza shop makes $1.50 on each small pizza and $2.15 on each large pizza. On a typical Friday it sells between 70 and 90 small pizzas and between 100 and 140 large pizzas. The shop can make no more than 210 pizzas in a day.
Calculate:
Consider the given information.
Let x represents the number of small pizzas and y represents the number of large pizzas.
It is given that on Friday shop sells between 70 to 90 small pizzas.
Also, on the same day shop sells between 100 and 140 large pizzas.
The shop can make no more than 210 pizzas in a day.
And the profit is $1.50 on each small pizza and $2.15 on each large pizza.
