A diet is to contain at least 80 units of vitamin A and 100 units of minerals. Two foods `F_(1)` and `F_(2)` are available. Food `F_(1)` costs Rs. Rs. 4 per unit food and `F_(2)` costs Rs. 6 per unit. One unit of food`F_(1)` contains 3 units of vitamin A and 4 units of minerals. One unit of food `F_(2)` contains 6 units, of vitamin A and 3 units of minerals, Formulate this as a linear programming problem. Find the minimum cost for diet theat consists of mixture of these two food and also meets the minimal nutritional requirements.
