A contractor builds storage sheds in two high end models, the Chelan and the Orondo. Each Chelan model requires: 2000 ft of framing lumber • 6000 cubic feet of concrete • $4000 for advertising Each Orondo model requires: • 4000 ft of framing lumber .6000 cubic feet of concrete • $6000 for advertising Contracts call for using at least 16000 ft of framing lumber, 36,000 cubic feet of concrete, and $30,000 worth of advertising. If construction cost for each Chelan shed is $40,000, and the construction cost for each Orondo shed is $30,000, how many of each model should be built to minimize construction costs?
