Pete's Coffees sells two blends of coffee beans: Morning Blend and South American Blend. Morning Blend is one-third Mexican beans and two-thirds Colombian beans, and South American Blend is two-thirds Mexican beans and one-third Colombian beans. Profit on the Morning Blend is S3 per pound, while profit on the South American Blend is $2.50 per pound. Each day, the shop can obtain 100 pounds of Mexican beans and 80 pounds of Colombian beans, and it uses that coffee only in the two blends. If the shop can sell all that it makes, how many pounds of Morning Blend and of South American Blend should Pete's Coffees prepare each day to maximize profit? What is that maximum profit?
