Maximizing Sales Revenue • A candy manufacturer has 130 pounds of chocolate-covered cherries and 170 pounds of chocolate-covered mints • Decides to sell them as half-and-half and one-third-to-two-thirds mixtures • Half-and-half bags will cost $2.00/lb. • Other bags will cost $1.25/lb. • How much of each mixture should he make to maximize revenue?
