$A$ diet is to contain at least $80$ units of vitamin $A$ and $100$ units of minerals. Two foods $F_{1}$ and $F_{2}$ are available. Food $F_{1}$ costs $Rs. 4$ per unit and food $F_{2}$ costs $Rs. 6$ per unit. One unit of food $F_{1}$ contains $3$ units of vitamin $A$ and $4$ units of minerals. One unit of food $F_{2}$ contains $6$ units of vitamin $A$ and $3$ units of minerals. Formulate this as a linear programming problem. Find the minimum cost for a diet that consists of a mixture of these two foods and also meets the minimal nutritional requirements.
