In Exercises 7-16, use the method of linear programming to solve the problem.
Pete's Coffees sells two blends of coffee beans: Yusip Blend and Exotic Blend. Yusip Blend is one-half Costa Rican beans and one half Ethiopian beans, and Exotic Blend is one-quarter Costa Rican beans and three-quarters Ethiopian beans. Profit on the Yusip Blend is $3.50 per pound, while profit on the Exotic Blend is $4 per pound. Each day, the shop can obtain 200 pounds of Costa Rican beans and 330 pounds of Ethiopian beans, and it uses that coffee only in the two blends. If the shop can sell all that it makes, how many pounds of Yusip Blend and of Exotic Blend should Pete's Coffees prepare each day to maximize profit? What is that maximum profit?
