Okay so the equation. Lets say e is explorers and v is flying vs and m = money.

e + v > or = 30.

80e + 5v = m.

e < or = 20/

v < or = 20.

Okay, the most money he could make would be if he made 20 explorers at 80 dollars and 10 vs at 5 dollars.

Total money ...

1600 + 50 = 1650.

So he could make $1650.
