Bay Oil produces two types of fuels (regular and super) by mixing three ingredients. The major distinguishing feature of the two products is the octane level required. Regular fuel must have a minimum octane level of 90 while super must have a level of at least 100. The cost per barrel, octane levels and available amounts (in barrels) for the upcoming two-week period appear in the table below. Likewise, the maximum demand for each end product and the revenue generated per barrel are shown below. Ingredient 1 2 3 Regular Super Max s.t.
