1 airbus 320 seat $ 200

18 boing 4500 seat $ 2,250

2 loockheed 550 seat $ 400

Total 5,370 seat $ 2, 850

Airbus 320 seat $ 200M

Boeing 250 seat $ 125 M

Lockheed 275 seat $ 200 M

We need to get 4,480 seats with a budget of 2,900 millions plus the composition requirement of twice as many Lockheed as Airbus:
