Assume that each small sandwich uses 5 inches of bread and 3 ounces of meat, and that each large sandwich uses 11 inches of bread and 6 ounces of meat. Assume also that the Deli has on hand each day 120 feet of bread and 35 pounds of meat. Assume also that the profit on each small sandwich is $1.00 and the profit on each large sandwich is $1.50. How many sandwiches of each size should the Deli make in order maximize its profit?
When you formulate a linear programming problem to solve this problem, how many variables, how many constraints (both implicit and explicit), and how many objective functions should you have?
Number of variables: 2
Number of constraints: 4
Number of objective functions: 1
Formulate the linear programming problem for this situation. (Enter either the word Maximize or the word Minimize in the first blank. Type the symbols <= wherever you want a "less than or equal" inequality, i.e., ≤, and type the symbols >= wherever you what a "greater than or equal" inequality, i.e., ≥.)

Subject to the constraints
XBlank Blank, YBlank Blank
Bread used (in inches)
BlankX + BlankY Blank Blank
Meat used (in ounces)
BlankX + BlankY Blank Blank
