Question:

Terrapin Airlines wants to fly 1400 members of a ski club to Colorado. The airline owns two types of planes. Type A can carry 50 passengers, requires 3 flight attendants, and costs $14,000 for the trip. Type B can carry 300 passengers, requires 4 flight attendants, and costs $90,000 for the trip. If the airline must use at least as many type A planes as type B and has available only 42 flight attendants, how many planes of each type should be used to minimize the cost for the trip?
