least three tons of ore must be processed each day. Ore from source A costs $$20$ per ton to process, and ore from source B costs $$10$ per ton to process. Costs must be kept to less than $$80$ per day. Moreover, Federal Regulations require that the amount of ore from source B cannot exceed twice the amount of ore from source A$.$ If ore from source A yields $2oz.$ of gold per ton, and ore from source B yields $3oz.$ of gold per ton, how many tons of ore from both sources must be processed each day to maximize the amount of gold extracted subject to the above constraints?

Setup and solve the problem.

The maximum yield of gold is
