$A$ company manufactures two types of novelty souvenirs made of plywood. Souvenirs of type $A$ require $5 \text{ minutes}$ each for cutting and $10 \text{ minutes}$ each for assembling. Souvenirs of type $B$ require $8 \text{ minutes}$ each for cutting and $8 \text{ minutes}$ each for assembling. There are $3 \text{ hours } 20 \text{ minutes}$ available for cutting and $4 \text{ hours}$ for assembling. The profit is $Rs. 5$ each for type $A$ and $Rs. 6$ each for type $B$ souvenirs. How many souvenirs of each type should the company manufacture in order to maximise the profit?

There are two types of fertilisers $F_{1}$ and $F_{2}$. $F_{1}$ consists of $10\%$ nitrogen and $6\%$ phosphoric acid,and $F_{2}$ consists of $5\%$ nitrogen and $10\%$ phosphoric acid. After testing the soil conditions,a farmer finds that she needs at least $14\,kg$ of nitrogen and $14\,kg$ of phosphoric acid for her crop. If $F_{1}$ costs $Rs\,6/kg$ and $F_{2}$ costs $Rs\,5/kg$,determine how much of each type of fertiliser should be used so that nutrient requirements are met at a minimum cost. What is the minimum cost?
