Wave Nutrition is a small campus shop that offers two house-made protein bars: Green Bar and Super Bar. Each bar requires protein and wheat. Wave Nutrition has 50 cups of protein and 48 cups of wheat available. A pack of Green Bar uses 5 cups of protein and 6 cups of wheat. A pack of Super Bar uses 10 cups of protein and 8 cups of wheat. Green Bar has a profit of $90 per pack; Super Bar has a profit of $120 per pack. Use Solver to determine the optimal production of Green Bar and Super Bar packs that maximizes Wave Nutrition's profit. Assume that everything produced will be sold.
