A biologist is developing two new strains of bacteria.

Each
sample of Type A bacteria produces ve new viable bacteria
and each of Type B bacteria produces six new viable bacteria.
Altogether, at least 150 new viable bacteria must be produced. At
least 10, but not more than 20 of the original sample must
be Type A and not more than 60 of the samples must be Type B.
A sample of Type A costs P500 and a sample of Type B
costs P700. If both types are to be used, how many samples of
each type should be used to minimize the cost?
