Let x represent the number of Pack 1 snack packs prepared and let y represent the number of Pack 2 snack packs prepared.

A.

Max R? = 5x? + 12y

Subjust to

x plus y less than or equals 90x+y?90

2 x plus 3 y less than or equals 702x+3y?70

x greater than or equals 0 comma y greater than or equals 0x?0, y?0

B.

Max R? = 5x? + 12y

Subjust to

x plus y less than or equals 70x+y?70

2 x plus 3 y less than or equals 902x+3y?90

x greater than or equals 0 comma y greater than or equals 0x?0, y?0

C.

Max R? = 5x? + 12y

Subjust to

x plus 2 y less than or equals 70x+2y?70

x plus 3 y less than or equals 90x+3y?90

x greater than or equals 0 comma y greater than or equals 0x?0, y?0

D.

Max R? = 12x? + 5y

Subjust to

x plus y less than or equals 70x+y?70

2 x plus 3 y less than or equals 902x+3y?90

x greater than or equals 0 comma y greater than or equals 0x?0, y?0

E.

Max R? = 12x? + 5y

Subjust to

x plus 2 y less than or equals 70x+2y?70

x plus 3 y less than or equals 90

Explanation / Answer

pack 1 (x) contains one candy bar and one piece of fruit for 5$
pack 2 (y) contains two candy bars and three peices of fruit for 12$
Total candy bars = 70 and total fruits = 90
So we have for candy bars constraint : 1x + 2y <= 70
for fruits we have 1y + 3y <= 90

Revenue (is to be maximised) is = 5 * x + 12 * y
Thus, problem is maximise 5x+ 12y
x+ y <= 70 and
x+ 3y < = 90
and x, y have to be non negative so x>=0 and y>=0 ;
Thus, option C is the correct answer.
