Solution

If the corner points of the feasible solution are (0, 10), (2, 2) and (4, 0), then the point of minimum z = 3x + 2y is (2, 2).

Explanation:

Z = 3x + 2y

At (0, 10) = Z = 0 + 2 (10) = 20

At (2, 2), = Z = 3 (2) + 2 (2) = 10

At (4, 0), Z = 3 (4) + 0 = 12

The minimum value of Z is 10 and it occurs at (2, 2).
