A school is preparing a trip for 400 students. The company who is providing the transportation has 10 large buses of 50 seats each and 8 small buses of 40 seats, but only has 9 drivers available. The rental cost for a large bus is $800 and $600 for the small bus. Formulate the problem to minimize the rental costs for the school in terms of the following decision variables:
S: number of small buses to rent
L: number of large buses to rent
A.
min 600S +800L subject to: 40S +50L >=9; S <=8; L <=10; S + L <=400; S, L >=0; S, L are integers
B.
min 600S +800L subject to: 40S +50L >=400; S <=8; L <=10; S + L <=9; S, L >=0
C.
min 600S +800L subject to: 40S +50L >=400; S <=8; L <=10; S + L <=9; S, L >=0; S, L are integers
D.
min 600S +800L subject to: 50S +40L >=400; S <=8; L <=10; S + L <=9; S, L >=0
