Capital Expansion McJester's Burger Hut plans to expand by opening several new restaurants. The chain operates two types of restaurants: drive-through and full-service. • A drive-through restaurant costs $111,000 to construct, requires 7 employees, and has an expected annual revenue of $205,000. • full-service restaurant costs $184,000 to construct, requires 17 employees, and has an expected annual revenue of $565,000. • McJester's has $3,250,000 in capital available for expansion. • Labor contracts require that they higher no more than 325 employees. • Licensing restrictions require that they open no more than 25 new restaurants. Let a be the number of drive-through restaurants and let y be the number of full-service restaurants in this expansion. Let R be the expected annual revenue in dollars resulting from the expansion. McJester's wants to maximize the expected revenue. Set up the linear programming problem. Answer the following questions about this linear programming problem.

A company's profit when it sells x thousand items is predicted to be P(x)=−2x2+952x−16000P(x)=-2x2+952x-16000. How many items does the company need to sell to break even? (to the nearest thousand items)
A printer has a contract to print 100,000 posters for a political candidate. He can run the posters by using any number of plates from 1 to 30 on his press. If he uses x metal plates, they will produce x copies of the poster with each impression of the press. The metal plates cost $20.00 to prepare, and it costs $145.80 per hour to run the press. If the press can make 1000 impressions per hour, how many metal plates should the printer make to minimize costs?

Ollivanders is a wand shop for wizards in Hogwarts. It has been estimated that when x wands are produced per week, the market price of each wand (in Galleons) will be p(x) = 21 − 3/10 x and the total cost (in Galleons) will be C(x) = 1/2x2 + 5x + 40.Apart from the total cost, their government, the Ministry of Magic, imposes a tax of t Galleons for each wand produced. This tax becomes an additional cost item to the shop. (a) Suppose that t is not yet known. Show that the profit of Ollivanders is maximized when x = 10 − 5/8t. (b) Assume that Ollivanders will always act so as to maximize profit. How much tax t should the Ministry of Magic charge per wand to maximize tax collections? (c) From the results in (a) and (b), find the final profit of the wand shop. What can you conclude?
