The probability that, on a given day, a displayed tricycle will be sold is . 10 and that a displayed bicycle will be sold is .12. Solve for the optimal number of tricycles and bicycles August Kids should display in its picture window daily under each of the following objectives:


 a. Maximize total expected daily profit.


 b. Maximize the total expected number of daily sales of tricycles and bicycles.
