$A$ 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?

    $8$ of type $A$ and $20$ of type $B$
  • B
    $20$ of type $A$ and $8$ of type $B$
  • C
    $10$ of type $A$ and $15$ of type $B$

$A$ production unit makes a special type of metal chip by combining copper and brass. The standard weight of the chip must be at least $5 \text{ gms}$. The basic ingredients,i.e.,copper and brass,cost $₹8$ and $₹5$ per $\text{gm}$ respectively. Durability considerations dictate that the metal chip must not contain more than $4 \text{ gms}$ of brass and should contain a minimum of $2 \text{ gms}$ of copper. Then,the minimum cost of the metal chip satisfying the above conditions is:
