#"See explanation below"#

Explanation:

#"Well, you must read the text well and identify three things : "#
#"1) The linear function that has to be maximized/minimized"#
#"2) The variables, those occur in the linear function of 1)"#
#"3) The constraints are also a linear function of the variables,"#
#"and that function has to be ">=" or "<=" a number."#

#"Sometimes there is a constraint =, but then we can eliminate"#
#"a variable by solving for that variable and substituting in the "#
#"other functions."#
