9 – 10.  At Burger Heaven a “double” contains 2 meat patties and 6 pickles, whereas a “triple”
contains (wait for it!) 3 meat patties and 3 pickles.  Near closing time one day, only 24 meat
patties and 48 pickles are available.  If a “double” sells for $1.50 and a “triple” sells for $2.00,
then how many of each should be made in order to maximize profit?    Let x represent number of
“double” burgers and y represent number of “triple” burgers.
