You must order nitrogen for your fertilizer business. The proper
ratio for your fertilizer mixture is 24% nitrogen, 4% phosphate,
8% potassium, and 64% bulk mixer. You combine the
components in a mixer with a 5-ton capacity and you want to
order enough nitrogen to mix 10 batches. The nitrogen sells for
$200 per ton. If the order is for more than 1 full ton, there is a
$15 discount on each full ton. If the order is for more than 2 full
tons, there is an additional $5 discount per each ton.
