NCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 4is given below

NCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 5

O (0, 0), A (4, 0), B (2, 3) and C (0, 4) are the corner points of the feasible region

The values of Z at these corner points are given below

Corner point Z = – 3x + 4y
O (0, 0) 0
A (4, 0) -12 Minimum
B (2, 3) 6
C (0, 4) 16

Hence, the minimum value of Z is – 12 at the point (4, 0)

3. Maximise Z = 5x + 3y

subject toNCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 6.

Solution:

The feasible region determined by the system of constraints, 3x + 5y ≤ 15, 5x + 2y ≤ 10, x ≥ 0, and y ≥ 0, are given below

NCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 7

O (0, 0), A (2, 0), B (0, 3) and C (20 / 19, 45 / 19) are the corner points of the feasible region. The values of Z at these corner points are given below

Corner point Z = 5x + 3y
O (0, 0) 0
A (2, 0) 10
B (0, 3) 9
C (20 / 19, 45 / 19) 235 / 19 Maximum

Hence, the maximum value of Z is 235 / 19 at the point (20 / 19, 45 / 19)

4. Minimise Z = 3x + 5y

such thatNCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 8.

Solution:

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

NCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 9

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)

5. Maximise Z = 3x + 2y

subject toNCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 10.

Solution:

The feasible region determined by the constraints, x + 2y ≤ 10, 3x + y ≤ 15, x ≥ 0, and y ≥ 0, is given below

NCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 11

A (5, 0), B (4, 3), C (0, 5) and D (0, 0) are the corner points of the feasible region.

The values of Z at these corner points are given below

Corner point Z = 3x + 2y
A (5, 0) 15
B (4, 3) 18 Maximum
C (0, 5) 10

Hence, the maximum value of Z is 18 at the point (4, 3)

6. Minimise Z = x + 2y

subject to
NCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 12.

Solution:

The feasible region determined by the constraints, 2x + y ≥ 3, x + 2y ≥ 6, x ≥ 0, and y ≥ 0, is given below

NCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 13

A (6, 0) and B (0, 3) are the corner points of the feasible region

The values of Z at the corner points are given below

Corner point Z = x + 2y
A (6, 0) 6
B (0, 3) 6

Here, the values of Z at points A and B are same. If we take any other point such as (2, 2) on line x + 2y = 6, then Z = 6

Hence, the minimum value of Z occurs for more than 2 points.

Therefore, the value of Z is minimum at every point on the line x + 2y = 6

7. Minimise and Maximise Z = 5x + 10y

subject toNCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 14.

Solution:

The feasible region determined by the constraints, x + 2y ≤ 120, x + y ≥ 60, x − 2y ≥ 0, x ≥ 0, and y ≥ 0, is given below

NCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 15

A (60, 0), B (120, 0), C (60, 30), and D (40, 20) are the corner points of the feasible region. The values of Z at these corner points are given

A (60, 0) 300 Minimum
B (120, 0) 600 Maximum
C (60, 30) 600 Maximum
D (40, 20) 400

The minimum value of Z is 300 at (60, 0) and the maximum value of Z is 600 at all the points on the line segment joining (120, 0) and (60, 30)

8. Minimise and Maximise Z = x + 2y

subject toNCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 16.

Solution:

The feasible region determined by the constraints, x + 2y ≥ 100, 2x − y ≤ 0, 2x + y ≤ 200, x ≥ 0, and y ≥ 0, is given below

NCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 17

A (0, 50), B (20, 40), C (50, 100) and D (0, 200) are the corner points of the feasible region. The values of Z at these corner points are given below

Corner point Z = x + 2y
A (0, 50) 100 Minimum
B (20, 40) 100 Minimum
C (50, 100) 250
D (0, 200) 400 Maximum

The maximum value of Z is 400 at point (0, 200) and the minimum value of Z is 100 at all the points on the line segment joining the points (0, 50) and (20, 40)

9. Maximise Z = − x + 2y, subject to the constraints:

NCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 18.

Solution:

The feasible region determined by the constraints, NCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 19
is given below

NCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 20

Here, it can be seen that the feasible region is unbounded.

The values of Z at corner points A (6, 0), B (4, 1) and C (3, 2) are given below

Corner point Z = – x + 2y
A (6, 0) Z = – 6
B (4, 1) Z = – 2
C (3, 2) Z = 1

Since the feasible region is unbounded, hence, z = 1 may or may not be the maximum value

For this purpose, we graph the inequality, – x + 2y > 1, and check whether the resulting half-plane has points in common with the feasible region or not.

Here, the resulting feasible region has points in common with the feasible region

Hence, z = 1 is not the maximum value.

Z has no maximum value.

10. Maximise Z = x + y, subject toNCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 21.

Solution:

The region determined by the constraints, NCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 22 is given below

NCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 23

There is no feasible region and therefore, z has no maximum value.
