A recent college graduate is planning to move cross country from her college town to the city where her first job is located. She has rented a truck that can haul up to 1100 cubic feet of furniture. The volume and value of each item she is considering moving on the truck are given below. Suppose she can save $400 by renting a smaller truck, which has only 800 cubic feet of capacity.
While still maximizing the value of the items taken, would she be better off with the smaller truck?
