Pimpin' Word Problems, #2: Design a Pimpstick

Pimpin' Word Problems, Numba 2: Design a Pimpstick

Yo, all playaz know that any real pimp gotz to walk
around wit a fly pimpstick so ho's be respectin' him,
right. Say I got $1000 to invest in a brand new,
custom pimpstick made just how I want it. Now here
be my choices for what I can put into it.

I gotz to pick one wood, one type of jewels, one
word engraved in tha top, and a length.

Here be tha costs fo' tha wood, and how much respect
I be gettin' fo' each kind:

Wood Cost Respect
----------------------------
Oak $40/ft 10 props
Pine $50/ft 15 props
Maple $80/ft 25 props



And tha same fo' tha jewels:

Jewels Cost Respect
---------------------------
Rubies $400 10 props
Diamonds $600 14 props


And fo' tha engravin', each letter cost
$50 and gets me 20 props.

Now, two mo' things. Tha pimpstick
gotta be at least two feet long, and tha
engravin' gotta have at least two lettaz.

So, yo, what's tha best pimpin' cane I can build fo' $1000
so I get tha most props?

Holla if ya know.

If you have to have jewels, then I think the best you can do is:

2ft. pine + Rubies + 10 letters. Cost = $1000. Respect = 240 props.
