Maximise the function Z =11x +7y, subject to the constraints x≤3,y≤2,x≤0 and y≤0
Maximise Z =11x +7y, subject to the constraints x≤3,y≤2,x≤0 and y≤0
The shaded region as shown in the figure as OABC is bounded and the coordinates of corner points are (0,0),(3,0),(3,2) and (0,2), respectively.
Corner pointsCorresponding value of Z(0,0)0(3,0)33(3,2)4←Maximum(0,2)47
Hence, Z is maximum at (3,2) and its maximum value is 47.
