  7. Target must ship at least 100 televisions to its two stores in Frankfort and Orland Park. • Each store can hold a maximum of 100 televisions. • Frankfort (x) has 25 televisions already, and Orland Park (y) has 20. • It costs $12 to ship a television to Frankfort and $10 to ship one to Orland Park.
