Math Problem Statement
A food factory is making a beverage for a customer from mixing two different existing products A and B. The compositions of A and B and prices ($/L) are given as follows, Amount.(L) in/100L of A and B {Lime,Orange,Mango,Cost($/L)}; {A,2,6,4,5}; {B,7,4,8,15}. The customer requires that there must be atleast 5 Litres(L)Orange and atleast 5 Litres of Mango concentrate per 100 Litres of the beverage respectively, but no more than 6 Litres of Lime concentrate per 100 Litres of beverage.The customer needs atleast 150 Litres of the beverage per week.

6x + 4y ≥ 5 (Orange Constraint)
4x + 8y ≥ 5 (Mango Constraint)
2x + 7y ≤ 6 (Lime Constraint)
x + y = 1 (Total Proportion)
Minimize Cost = 5x + 15y
