Objective function: z=9x+7y

Constraints:
x ≥0, y ≥0
x+y ≥1
2x+4y ≤16
4x+2y ≤16

Answer:

The maximum value of z is 43.2 when x=2.7 and y=2.7 . The minimum value of f is 7 when x=0 and y=1

Explanation:

f(x,y): z = 9x + 7y ... (1)

from the graphing we get the vertices of the constraint region formed are:

(0,4) (0,1) (1,0) (4,0) (2.7,2.7) ... plug in (1)

at (0,4): z = 28

at (0,1): z = 7

at (1,0): z = 9

at (4,0): z = 36

at (2.7,2.7): z = 43.2

The maximum value of z is 43.2 when x=2.7 and y=2.7 . The minimum value of z is 7 when x=0 and y=1

Objective function: z=9x+7y Constraints: x ≥0, y ≥0 x+y ≥1 2x+4y ≤16 4x+2y ≤16 Find-example-1
