A firm has two plants, A and B, that manufacture three products, P1, P2, and P3. In one day Plant A can manufacture 30 of P1, 30 of P2, and 10 of P3, and costs $10386 a day to operate, whereas Plant B can manufacture 10 of P1, 20 of P2 and 30 of P3, and costs $4800 a day to operate. At least 240 of the first product, 390 of the second, and 410 of the third are needed. How many days must each plant operate in order to minimize cost? Find the minimum cost. plant A    days plant B    days minimum cost
