A small candy shop is preparing for the holiday season. The owner must decide how many bags of deluxe mix and how many bags of standard mix of Peanut/Raisin Delite to put up. The deluxe mix has 2/3 pound raisins and 1/3 pound peanuts, and the standard mix has 1/2 pound raisins and 1/2 pound peanuts per bag. The shop has 74 pounds of raisins and 54 pounds of peanuts to work with. Peanuts cost $.60 per pound and raisins cost $1.50 per pound. The deluxe mix will sell for $2.75 per pound, and the standard mix will sell for $2.08 per pound. The owner estimates that no more than 110 bags of one type can be sold.
