Solution

The correct option is D Zmax is at (120,0)
Z=5x+10y subject to the constraints x+2y120,x+y60,x2y0 and x0,y0
We take the given inequality to find the region bounded by these inequalities.
x+2y=120
The shaded region BDEF determined by linear inequalities shows the feasible region.
Let us evaluate the objective function Z at each point as shown below
Corner points Z=5x+10y
B(120,0) 600
D(60,0) 300
E(40,20) 400
F(60,30) 600 (Maximum)
Hence, Maximum value of Z is 600 at F(60,30) and (120,0) and minimum value of Z is 300 at D(60,0)
