In a laboratory experiment, two separate foods are given to experimental animals. Each food contains essential ingredients, A and B, for which the animals have a minimum requirement, and each food also has an ingredient C, which can be harmful to the animals. The table below summarizes this information.
How many grams of foods 1 and 2 will satisfy the requirements for A and B and minimize the amount of ingredient C that is ingested? Also what is the minimum amount of ingredient C ingested?
A) 1 gram0 of food 1 and 2 grams of food 2 satisfy the minimum requirements for A and B while minimizing the amount of ingredient C to 5 grams.
B) 2 grams of food 1 and 1 gram0 of food 2 satisfy the minimum requirements for A and B while minimizing the amount of ingredient C to 5 grams.
C) 2 grams of food 1 and 2 grams of food 2 satisfy the minimum requirements for A and B while minimizing the amount of ingredient C to 6 grams.
D) 3 grams of food 1 and 1 gram0 of food 2 satisfy the minimum requirements for A and B while minimizing the amount of ingredient C to 7 grams.
E) 3 grams of food 1 and 2 grams of food 2 satisfy the minimum requirements for A and B while minimizing the amount of ingredient C to 8 grams.
