If a young man drives his vehicle 25 km/hr he has to spend Rs. 2 per km on petrol. If he drives it at faster speed of 40 km/hr, the petrol cost increases to Rs. 5 per km. He has Rs. 100 to spend on petrol and travel within one hour. The maximum distance he travels is : |
20 km 100 km 30 km 50 km |
30 km |
The correct answer is Option (3) → 30 km Objective fn = x+ y if he travels $2x+5y≤100$ $\frac{x}{25}+\frac{y}{40}≤1,x,y≥0$ x kms at 25 y kms at 40 checking at corner points $Z_A=20$ $Z_C=30$ → Maximum distance $Z_E=25$ |
