Answer:

Answer is C [tex]P = 2x + 3y[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling price of candy bar X =$2

Selling price of candy bar Y =$3

So if Julie sells x from X candy bars and y bars from Y candy bars,

Profit made from selling X candy bars = [tex]2\times x[/tex]

Profit made from selling Y candy bars = [tex]3\times y[/tex]

Therefore, assuming that there is no cost for the candy bars the profit by selling candy bars can be represented by the following objective function:

[tex]P = 2x + 3y[/tex]

Therefore, answer is C
