Answer:

  120 of design B

Step-by-step explanation:

The profit per dollar cost for design A is (2500/1750 -1) ≈ 0.43. For design B, it is (2100/1200 -1) ≈ 0.75. Design B is more profitable and less expensive to make, so its production should be maximized.

For maximum profit, 120 jogging pants of design B should be made each week.

_____

The budget of 150,000 would allow 150,000/1,200 = 125 pants of design B to be made. The production limit of 120 pants does not use the entire budget.
