Solution
Corner points of the feasible region for an LPP are (0, 2), (3, 0), (6, 0), (6, 8) and (0, 5). Let F = 4x + 6y be the objective function. The Minimum value of F occurs at any point on the line segment joining the points (0, 2) and (3, 0).
Explanation:
| Corner points | Value of F = 4x + 6y | |
| (0, 2) | Z = 4(0) + 6(2) = 12 | ← Minimum |
| (3, 0) | Z = 4(3) + 6(0) = 12 | ← Minimum |
| (6, 0) | Z = 4(6) + 6(0) = 24 | |
| (6, 8) | Z = 4(6) + 6(8) = 72 | ← Maximum |
| (0, 5) | Z = 4(0) + 6(5) = 30 |
The minimum value of F occurs at any point on the line segment joining the points (0, 2) and (3, 0).
