Consider the following problem: ``A chocolate manufacturing company produces two types of chocolate: type A and type B. Each unit of A requires 1 unit of Milk and 3 units of Chocolate, and each unit of B requires 1 unit of Milk and 2 units of Chocolate. The company has a total of 500 units of Milk and 620 units of Chocolate. On each sale, the company makes a profit of $6$6 per unit A sold, and $5 per unit B sold. How many units of A and B should be produced in order to maximize the profit?'' Let ?x be the number of units of A to produce, let ?y be the number of units of B to produce, and let P be the profit earned. Which of the following is the objective function for this linear programming problem? A
