Use the following problem statement to answer questions 1-3.
A company produces a drug from two ingredients. Each ingredient contains the same three antibiotics in different proportions. One gram of ingredient 1 contributes 3 units of antibiotic 1, and one gram of ingredient 2 contributes 1 unit of antibiotic 1. The drug requires at most 18 units of antibiotic 1. At least 6 units of antibiotic 2 are required, and the ingredients each contribute 1 unit per gram. At least 14 units of antibiotic 3 are required; a gram of ingredient 1 contributes 2 units, and a gram of ingredient 2 contributes 6 units. The cost for a gram of ingredient 2 is $80, and the cost for a gram of ingredient 1 is $50. The company wants to formulate a linear programming model to determine the number of grams of each ingredient that must go into the drug in order to meet the antibiotic requirements at the minimum cost.
[Note: x1= the number of grams of ingredient 1.x2= the number of grams of ingredient 2]
