A toy manufacturer ships a toy in one of two different size boxes. The small box contains 6 of the toy and the large box contains 10 of the toy.

A client orders no fewer than 100 of the toy. Based on his storage and sales needs, the client requires that he receive no more than 8 of the large boxes and no fewer than 6 of the small boxes.

The cost to the client for a small box is $4 and the cost to the client for a large box is $6. The client does not wish to exceed $200 for his order of toys.

Let x represent the number of small boxes and y represent the number of large boxes.
