Practicing Success
In a linear programming problem, the constraints on the decision variables x and y are, x - 3y ≥ 0, y ≥ 0, 0 ≤ x ≤ 3. The feasible region : |
is not in the first quadrant is bounded in the first quadrant is unbounded in the first quadrant does not exist |
is bounded in the first quadrant |
constraints. $x-3 y ≥ 0$ $y ≥ 0$ $0 ≤ x ≤ 3$ plotting x - 3y = 0
Checking for inequality x - 3y ≥ 0 for point (1, 1) 1 - 3 ≥ 0 → false ⇒ hence solution lies to side of x - 3y = 0 not containing (1, 1) option 2 → is bounded in the first quadrant |
