Answer:

min = -9

max =3

Explanation:

C = x-3y

x ≥0

x≤3

y≥0

y≤3

The minimum will be be when x is smallest and y is at its max

x =0 and y = 3

C = 0 - 3(3)

C = 0-9 = -9

The minimum is -9

The maximum occurs when x is largest and y is smallest

x =3 and y = 0

C = 3 - 3(0)

C = 3-0 = 3

The max is 3
