The franchise has 6 hours of labor available each morning. The manager has a contract with a local grocer for 30 pounds of sausage and 30 pounds of ham each morning. The manager also purchases 16 pounds of flour.
The profit for a sausage biscuit is $0.60; the profit for a ham biscuit is $0.50.
The manager wants to know the number of each type of biscuit to prepare each morning in order to maximize profit.
