Answer:

Option B is correct

The maximum revenue that the company can make from the treadmill sales is, $81,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of treadmill x sold and y represents the number of treadmill y sold

As per the statement: Three times the number of treadmill y sold must be less than or equal to twice the number of treadmill x sold.

⇒[tex]3y\leq 2x[/tex]                    ......[1]

Also, it is given that the company has at most 100 treadmills to sell.

⇒[tex]x+y\leq 100[/tex]

using a graph tool for equation [1] and [2] as shown in figure given below;

⇒ the solution is the shaded area

The maximum revenue that the company can make is for the point, (60, 40)

⇒ x = 60 treadmills

and y = 40 treadmills

Maximum Revenue = [tex]60 \times 750 + 40 \times 900 = 45000+36000 = \$81,000[/tex]

Therefore, the maximum revenue that the company can make from the treadmill sales is, $81,000
