protein and 24 units of carbohydrates. Each ounce of potatoes contains 5 units of protein and 35 units of
carbohydrates. The minimum daily requirements for the patients under the dietitian's care are 45 units of
protein and 58 units of carbohydrates. How many ounces of each type of food should the dietitian purchase for
each patient so as to minimize costs and at the same time insure the minimum daily requirements of protein
and carbohydrates? (Let x1 equal the number of ounces of chicken and x2 the number of ounces of potatoes
purchased per patient.)
