An LPP defined by the objective function $Z=2x+2y$ has to be maximized. The corner points are (0,0), (5, 0), (8, 2), (4, 6) and (0, 8). The maximum value occurs at :
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → At all points on the line segment joining the points (4, 6) and (8, 2)
| Points | Values of Z |
| (0, 0) | 0 |
| (5, 0) | 10 |
| (8, 2) | 20 |
| (4, 6) | 20 |
| (0, 8) | 16 |
The maximum value occurs at all point of joining (4, 6), (8, 2)
