A pair of weak earthquakes is modeled by a system of inequalities. One earthquake occurred roughly 20 km east and 14 km north of the center of Columbia, NC. The quake could be felt from 25 km away. A couple days later, another earthquake occurred 8 km west and 3 km north of the center of Columbia and could be felt from 14 km away. If Columbia is located at (0, 0) on a coordinate grid, the system of inequalities represents this scenario.

A school district needs to arrange transportation for at least 360 students for a field trip. The district can use large buses or small buses. The large buses hold 60 students each and have an operating expense of $300 for the day. The small buses hold 45 students each and have an operating expense of $200 for the day. The district only has chaperones for, at most, seven buses. What is the minimum cost for the transportation for the field trip if each bus has chaperones?
