If Z =7 x+y subject to 5 x+y 5, x+y 3, x 0, y 0 , then minimum value of Z is
Options
- A2
- B5
- C6
- D3
Correct answer
B. 5
Step-by-step solution
Feasible area is shaded. Point of intersection of given lines is P ( 1 2 , 5 2 ) Co-ordinates of points are as follows : C (3,0) ; P ( 1 2 , 5 2 ) and B (0,5) We have Z=7 x+yZ_ (c) =21+0=21 Z_ (B) =0+5=5Z_ (P) = 7 2 + 5 2 =6 Thus minimum value is 5.
