Linear Programming - Graphical Maximization
Not what you're looking for?
I am studying for a test and I had this homework problem that is confusing me. Can you show the feasible region and corner points, evaluate the objective function at each corner point. determine the values of x, y, and Z at the optimal solution
Max Z = 3x + 4y
S. T.
x + 3y <24
3x +y>15
3x-2y<0
x,y>0

evaluate the objective function at each corner point. determine the values of x, y, and Z at the optimal solution
Maximize
S. T.
The final constraint tells us the values are only positive, so we are only interested in the first quadrant. Consider each constraint as a line, we evaluate at a test point (generally the origin (0,0) is easy and good and decide which side of the line our feasible region is in. So, we need to graph these three lines: ...
