- Formulate but do not solve the following exercise as a linear programming problem. A nutritionist at the Medical Center has been asked to prepare a special diet for certain patients. She has decided that the meals are to be prepared from Foods A and B and that the meals should contain a minimum of 390 mg of calcium, 10 mg of iron, and 40 mg of vitamin C. Each ounce of Food A contains 25 mg of calcium, 2.5 mg of iron, 2 mg of vitamin C, and 6 mg of cholesterol. Each ounce of Food B contains 25 mg of calcium, 0.5 mg of iron, 5 mg of vitamin C, and 5 mg of cholesterol. How many ounces of each type of food should be used in a meal so that the cholesterol content C (in mg) is minimized and the minimum requirements of calcium, iron, and vitamin C are met?
