Mrs. White wants to crochet beach hats and baby afghans for a church fund-raising bazaar. She needs 7 hours to make a hat and 3 hours to make an afghan and she has 58 hours available. She wants to make no more than 14 items and no more than 12 afghans. The bazaar will sell the hats for \$13 each and the afghans for \$7 each. How many of each should she make to maximize the income for the bazaar? What is the maximum income?

58 hr

no more than 14 items

it takes 3hr to make 1 afghan

no more than 12 afghans

12 afghans x 3hr= 36 hr

58 hr- 36hr= 22hr

7hr to make a hat

she only needs to make 2 hats before she reaches the 14 item limit

2 hats x \$13= \$26

12x \$7= \$84

\$84 + \$36= \$120
