Explanation / Answer

The objective function will be to maximize profit from production of trucks and cars.

Since the profit per truck $275, profit from T number of trucks = $275.T

Since , profit per car is $220, profit from C number of cars = $220. C

Therefore , total profit from trucks and cars = $275.T + $ 220.C

Since the objective function is to maximize profit

Objective function = Z = 275.T + 220.C
