Hints for Exercise 0711:

1. Note that you are minimizing the cost per pound and that protein and fat do not add up to be 100 percent.
2. Each trim can be used to produce product A and/or product B to sell, or to sell the trim as is. It is infeasible to separate protein from fat.
3. Your answer must show how the products A and B will be produced from the available different types of trim.
4. For the graph, you need a 45 degree line instead of the bounds of the two axes.
