Farm HappyChicken is revisiting current feed formulation for their poultry. The feed is obtained by mixing various ingredients. Common ingredients, their costs, and nutrition facts are presented below. The nutrition facts of the resulting mix must fall inside the provided min/max values. For example, Calories of the mix should be at least 1400 but no more than 1750:
1675*Ma + 1550*W + 1150*R + 1275*So + 1100*Su + 1340*Me >=1400
1675*Ma + 1550*W + 1150*R + 1275*So + 1100*Su + 1340*Me
where Ma, W, R, So, Su, and Me are the ingredient amounts (in lb). The model must include constraints for all the listed nutrients. Since the mix weighs 1 lb, Ma + W + R + So + Su + Me = 1 lb.
