Business Math
A small fish market sells only tuna and salmon. A tuna costs the fish market $1.75 per pound to buy an $1.00 per pound to clean and package. A salmon cost the fish market $2.25 per pound to buy and $3.50 per pound to clean and package. The fish market makes $1.30 per pound profit for each tuna it sells and $1.60 per pound profit for each salmon it sells. The fish market can spend only $200 per day to buy fish and $225 per day to clean and package the fish. What is the maximum profit the fish owner can make per day and how much of each type of fish can he buy?
