Can you help me ?



A school is organising a Year 12 student lunch. From the students’ requests, the school needs to supply at least 50 pies and 60 sausage rolls for the lunch. Bev’s Bakery can sell packages containing 6 pies and 4 sausage rolls for $15, while Dave’s Bakery offers a package containing 4 pies and 8 sausage rolls for $18. The school has a budget of $189 for the lunch.



c) The school’s teachers think the packages should be bought such that the total number of food items is maximised.



  1. What is the new objective?

  2. Write the objective function

  3. What are the two optimal combinations of packages in this case?
