Q.1: Region represented by x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0 is:

A. first quadrant

B. second quadrant

C. third quadrant

D. fourth quadrant

Answer: A. first quadrant

Explanation: All the positive values of x and y will lie in the first quadrant.

Q.2: The objective function of a linear programming problem is:

A. a constraint

B. function to be optimised

C. A relation between the variables

D. None of these

Answer: B. function to be optimised

Q.3: The linear inequalities or equations or restrictions on the variables of a linear programming problem are called:

A. a constraint

B. Decision variables

C. Objective function

D. None of the above

Answer: A. a constraint

Q.4: A set of values of decision variables that satisfies the linear constraints and non-negativity conditions of an L.P.P. is called its:

A. Unbounded solution

B. Optimum solution

C. Feasible solution

D. None of these

Answer: C. Feasible solution

Q.5: The maximum value of Z = 3x + 4y subjected to constraints x + y ≤ 4, x ≥ 0 and y ≥ 0 is:

A. 12

B. 14

C. 16

D. None of the above

Answer: C. 16

Explanation: The feasible region determined by the constraints, x + y ≤ 4, x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0, is given below

Class 12 Maths Chapter 12 Linear Programming MCQs

O (0, 0), A (4, 0), and B (0, 4) are the corner points of the feasible region. The values of Z at these points are given below:

Corner point Z = 3x + 4y
O (0, 0) 0
A (4, 0) 12
B (0, 4) 16

Hence, the maximum value of Z is 16 at point B (0, 4)

Q.6: The minimum value of Z = 3x + 5y subjected to constraints x + 3y ≥ 3, x + y ≥ 2, x, y ≥ 0 is:

A. 5

B. 7

C. 10

D. 11

Answer: B. 7

Explanation: The feasible region determined by the system of constraints, x + 3y ≥ 3, x + y ≥ 2, and x, y ≥ 0 is given below

Class 12 Maths Chapter 12 Linear Programming MCQs 2

It can be seen that the feasible region is unbounded.

The corner points of the feasible region are A (3, 0), B (3 / 2, 1 / 2) and C (0, 2)

The values of Z at these corner points are given below

Corner point Z = 3x + 5y
A (3, 0) 9
B (3 / 2, 1 / 2) 7 Smallest
C (0, 2) 10

7 may or may not be the minimum value of Z because the feasible region is unbounded

For this purpose, we draw the graph of the inequality, 3x + 5y < 7 and check the resulting half-plane have common points with the feasible region or not. Hence, it can be seen that the feasible region has no common point with 3x + 5y < 7.

Thus, the minimum value of Z is 7 at point B (3/2, 1/2).

Q.7: Maximize Z = 3x + 5y, subject to constraints: x + 4y ≤ 24, 3x + y ≤ 21, x + y ≤ 9, x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0

A. 20 at (1, 0)

B. 30 at (0, 6)

C. 37 at (4, 5)

D. 33 at (6, 3)

Answer: C. 37 at (4, 5)

Explanation: Find the maximum value of Z = 3x + 5y referring to the explanation of Q.5.

Q.8: The point which does not lie in the half-plane 2x + 3y -12 < 0 is:

A. (2,1)

B. (1,2)

C. (-2,3)

D. (2,3)

Answer: D. (2,3)

Explanation: By putting the value of point (2,3) in 2x + 3y – 12, we get;

2(2) + 3(3) – 12

= 4 + 9 – 12

= 13 – 12

= 1 which is greater than 0.

Q.9: The optimal value of the objective function is attained at the points:

A. on X-axis

B. on Y-axis

C. corner points of the feasible region

D. none of these

Answer: C. corner points of the feasible region

Explanation: Any point in the feasible region that gives the optimal value (maximum or minimum) of the objective function is called an optimal solution.

Q.10: Which of the following is a type of Linear programming problem?

A. Manufacturing problem

B. Diet problem

C. Transportation problems

D. All of the above

Answer: D. All of the above
