"An automobile manufacturer has 960 tons of metal on hand from which to make automobiles and trucks. It takes two tons of metal and 200 man-hours of labor to make an automobile and four tons of metal and 150 man-hours of labor to make a truck. The manufacturer has 96,000 man-hours of labor available. On each car he makes $500 and on each truck $800. How many of each should he make to maximize his profit? What is the maximum profit?"

Okay this is what I got so far:
A- 2x+200y?(not sure)

Objective funtion: 500x+800y
