Practicing Success
The corner points of the feasible region determined by the system of linear constraints are (0, 3), (1, 1) and (3, 0). Let $Z=px +qv,$ where p, q > 0, be the objective function. Then the condition on p and q so that minimum of Z occurs at (3, 0) and (1, 1) is : |
$p=q$ $p=3q$ $p=\frac{q}{2}$ $p=\frac{q}{3}$ |
$p=\frac{q}{2}$ |
The correct answer is Option (3) → $p=\frac{q}{2}$ for minimum to occurs at both (3, 0), (1, 1) $Z(3, 0)=Z(1, 1)$ $3p=p+q$ so $p=\frac{q}{2}$ |
