total dog food in a day.
Brand A costs 1 thousand dollars per ton to make, and sells for 2 thousand dollars per ton. Brand B costs 2.5 thousand dollars to make, and sells for 3 thousand dollars per ton. Thus, the equation for revenue is R = 2x + 3y, the equation for cost is C = x + 2.5y, and the equation for profit is P = R - C = x + 0.5y.
