Help the director by finding the quantities of each food that will minimize costs and still maintain the desired nutritional level. The three foods have the following nutritional characteristics per unit:

\begin{matrix} \text{ } & \text{A} & \text{B} & \text{C}\\ \text{Protein (g)} & \text{16} & \text{10} & \text{23}\\ \text{Carbohydrates (g)} & \text{20} & \text{31} & \text{11}\\ \text{Calories} & \text{400} & \text{300} & \text{100}\\ \text{Cost (\$)} & \text{1.40} & \text{1.65} & \text{1.95}\\ \end{matrix}
