Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The phrase "must contain exactly" is used to specify an equality constraint in linear optimization. This means that the quantity or variable mentioned in the constraint must have a specific value and no other value. Therefore, the appropriate mathematical symbol to represent this constraint is "=". Hence, the correct choice is A.
