For an objective function with constraints and (), at what point(s) will achieve its maximum value?
- APoint
- BPoint
- CAll points on the line joining and
- DOnly points and
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Corner points of the feasible region:Intersection of with -axis: . Point .Intersection of with -axis: . Point .Intersection of and :Multiply eq 1 by 1.5: .Add to eq 2: .. Point .Evaluate : Since the maximum value occurs at two corner points and , the maximum occurs at every point on the line segment joining and .
