The Green Company manufactures an electric motorcycle, which it sells through two of its company-owned retail stores. Store A has requested between 40 and 50 motorcycles, inclusive, and Store B has requested between 30 and 40 motorcycles, inclusive. On the basis of previous sales, the Green Company has decided that the number of motorcycles shipped to Store B should equal or exceed 40% of the number shipped to Store A by 20 motorcycles. The shipping costs from the manufacturer to Store A and Store B respectively are $40 and $60 per motorcycle. How many motorcycles should the Green Company ship to each store in order to minimize its shipping costs? What is the minimum cost?
