Assistance with question please. (c) A company manufactures two products: X and Y. Product X costs $8 per unit and contains 2units of raw material 1,6 units of raw material 2 and 4 units of raw material 3. Product Ycosts $10 per unit and contains 2 units of raw material 1, 2 units of raw material 2 and 12units of raw material 3. The company has 80 units of raw material 1, 120 units of rawmaterial 2 and 240 units of raw material 3 available. In addition, the product Y should be atleast 15 units less than product X. How many units of each product should the companyproduce to minimize the cost of production?(1)Derive the system of equations.(ii)Use the extreme point method to solve the system. Ensure that you explain eachstep in the computation.
