Two plants are emitting a uniformly mixed pollutant called gunk into the beautiful sky over tourist town. the city government decides it can tolerate total emissions of no more than 100 kg of gunk per day. plant g has marginal reduction costs of 100 - 4x and is currently polluting at a level of 25, while plant k has marginal reduction costs of 150 - y and currently pollutes at a level of 150 (x and y are the level of emissions at each plant).
