HELP Because of new federal regulations on pollution, a chemical plant introduced a new, more expensive process to supplement or replace an older process used in the
production of a particular chemical. The older process emitted 16 grams of sulfur dioxide and 48 grams of particulate matter into the atmosphere for each gallon of
chemical produced. The new process emits 2 grams of sulfur dioxide and 16 grams of particulate
matter for each gallon produced. The company makes a profit of 80¢
per gallon and 20¢ per gallon on the old and new processes, respectively. Answer parts (A) through (C) below.
(A) If the government allows the plant to emit no more than 13,600 grams of sulfur dioxide and 38,400 grams of particulate matter daily, how many gallons of the
chemical should be produced by each process to maximize daily profit? What is the maximum daily profit? Summarize the model.
