The correct answer is Option (2) → Bounded in first quadrant Given: Maximize $z = 10x + 6y$ Subject to the constraints: $3x + y \leq 12$ $2x + 5y \leq 34$ $x \geq 0,\ y \geq 0$ The feasible region lies in the first quadrant, bounded by the lines: 1. $3x + y = 12$ ⟶ $y = 12 - 3x$ 2. $2x + 5y = 34$ ⟶ $y = \frac{34 - 2x}{5}$ Both lines intersect within the first quadrant and the constraints form a closed polygonal region. Also, $x \geq 0$ and $y \geq 0$ restrict the solution to the first quadrant only. Thus, the feasible region is closed and bounded. |
