minimize labor costs?
Chemical Products makes two insect repellants, Regular and Super. The chemical used for Regular is 15% DEET, and the chemical used for Super is 25% DEET. Each carton of repellant contains 22 ounces of the chemical. In order to justify starting production, the company must produce at least 10,200 cartons of insect repellant, and it must produce at least twice as many cartons of Regular as of Super. Labor costs are $8 per carton for Regular and $6 per carton for Super. How many cartons of each repellant should be produced to minimize labor costs if 54,450 ounces of DEET are available?
Note: It would be helpful if you can provide how to get the solutions. Thanks!
