You are the purchasing manager of an airline company and have a spending goal of $4,690 million for the purchase of new aircraft to seat a total of 5,010 passengers. Your company has a policy of supporting U.S. industries, and you have been instructed to buy twice as many Boeings as Airbuses. Given the selection of three aircraft, how many of each should you order? Airbus A330-300s Boeing 767-300ERS Boeing Dreamliner 787-95 6 That's it!
