The maximum value of the objective function Z=3 x+2 y for linear constraints x+y 72 x+3 y 16, x 0, y 0 is
Options
- A16
- B21
- C25
- D28
Correct answer
B. 21
Step-by-step solution
The feasible region is O A B C O . At O(0,0), Z=0 At A (0, 16 3 ), Z= 32 3 At B(5,2), Z=15+4=19 At C(7,0), Z=21 Maximum value of Z is 21 .
