The maximum value of Z =x+y , subjected to x+y 10,5 x+3 y 15, x 6, x, y 0
Options
- Aoccurs only at unique point
- Boccurs only at two distinct points
- Coccurs at infinitely many points
- Ddoes not exist
Correct answer
C. occurs at infinitely many points
Step-by-step solution
Feasible region lies on the origin side of x+y=10, x=6 and non-origin side of 5 x+3 y=15 The corner points of feasible region are A (0,5) and B (0,10), C (6,4), D (6,0), E (3,0) At A (0,5), z =0+5=5 At B( 0,10 ), z =0+10=10 At C(6,4), z=6+4=10 At D (6,0), z =6+0=6 At E(3,0), z=3+0=3 z has maximum value at B (0,10) and C (6,4) . z has infinite solution on seg BC .
