Solution

Inequation Point on x-axis  Point on y-axis Feasible Region 
x +4y ≤ 24  (24,0) (0,6) Origin side
3x +y ≤ 21 (7,0) (0,21) Origin side
x + y ≤9 (9,0) (0,9) Origin side

From the figure common feasible region is ABCDEA 
E is the point of intersection of  x + y = 9 and x + 4y =24
Solving them we get E(4,5)
D is the point of intersection of  x + y = 9 and 3x +y = 21
Solving them we get D(6,3)

End Point Value of z = 3x +5y
A(0,6) 0 +30= 30 
B(0,0) 0 + 0 = 0
C(7,0) 21 + 0 = 21
D(6,3) 18 +1 5 = 33
E(4,5) 12 +25 = 37

∴ z is maximum 37 at the point (4, 5)
