The maximum value of Z=10 x+16 y , subject to constraints x 0, y 0, x+y 12,2 x+y 20 is
Options
- A144
- B192
- C120
- D240
Correct answer
B. 192
Step-by-step solution
Given, constraints are x 0, y 0, x+y 12,2 x+y 20 The feasible region is O A B C O . aligned & Z=10 x+16 y & At, O(0,0), Z=10(0)+16(0)=0 & At, A(10,0), Z=10(10)+16(0)=100 & At, B(8,4) Z=10(8)+16(4)=144 & At, C(0,12), Z=10(0)+16(12)=192 aligned Hence, the maximum value of Z is 192 .
