Question:

The corner points of the feasible region of a LPP are P(0, 5), Q(1, 5), R(4, 2) and S(12, 0). The minimum value of the objective function $Z=2x+5y $ is at the point :

Options:

P

Q

R

S

Correct Answer:

R

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) → R

Corner points   $Z(x,y)=2x+5y$
P(0, 5) Z(0, 5) = 25
Q(1, 5) Z(1, 5) = 27
R(4, 2) Z(4, 2) = 18
S(12, 0) Z(12, 0) = 24

Minimum value at point R
