If the corner points of the bounded feasible region of an LPP with objective function Maximize \(Z = 2x + 3y\) are (0, 0), (1, 2) and (1, 1), then its optimal value is
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → 8
On a bounded feasible region, the maximum of Z occurs at a corner point:
\(Z(0, 0) = 0\)
\(Z(1, 2) = 2 + 6 = 8\)
\(Z(1, 1) = 2 + 3 = 5\)
The largest corner value is 8, at (1, 2).
