Students are having a fundraiser to help pay for a trip. Selling candy yields a profit of $2.45 while selling a box of pretzels yields a profit of $2.70. The demand for pretzels is at least twice that of the candy, but the amount of pretzels produced must be no more than 550 boxes plus 3 times the number of candy produced. Assuming that the students can sell every box that they order, how many boxes of each should they order to maximize profit if they cannot order more than 1950 boxes combined?
*find objective function, constraints, graph of feasible region, and order pair
