A diet to two foods `F_1a n dF_2` contains nutrients thiamine, phosphorous and iron. The amount of each nutrient in each of the food (in milligrams per 25 gms) is given in the following table: Food Nutrients, `F_1` , `F_2` Thiamine, 0.25, 0.10 Phosphorous, 0.75, 1.50 Iron, 1.60, 0.80 The minimum requirement of the nutrients in the diet are 1.00 mg of thiamine, 7.50mg of phosphorous and 10.00 mg of iron. The cost `F_1` is 20 paise per 25 gms while the cost of `F_2` is 15 paise per 25 gms. Find the minimum cost of diet.

Vitamins A and B are found in two different foods F_1 \ a n d \ F_2 . One unit of food F_1 contains 2 units of vitamin A and 3 units of vitamin B. One unit of food F_2 contains 4 units of vitamin A and 2 units of vitamin B. One unit of food F_1 \ a n d \ F_2 cost Rs. 50 and 25 respectively. The minimum daily requirements for a person of vitamin A and B is 40 and 50 units respectively. Assuming that anything in excess of daily minimum requirement of vitamin A and B is not harmful, find out the optimum mixture of food F_1 \ a n d \ F_2 at the minimum cost which meets the daily minimum requirement of vitamin A and B. Formulate this as a LPP.
