Manufacturing A sausage company makes two different kinds of hot dogs, regular and all beef. Each pound of all-beef hot dogs requires 0.75 lb of beef and 0.2 lb of spices, and each pound of regular hot dogs requires 0.18 lb of beef, 0.3 lb of pork, and 0.2 lb of spices. Suppliers can deliver at most 1020 lb of beef, at most 600 lb of pork, and at least 500 lb of spices. If the profit is $1.50 on each pound of all-beef hot dogs and $1.00 on each pound of regular hot dogs, how many pounds of each should be produced to obtain maximum profit? What is the maximum profit?
