Solution

To draw the feasible region, construct a table as follows:

Inequality 5x + y ≥ 5 x + y ≥ 3
Corresponding equation (of line) 5x + y = 5 x + y = 3
Intersection of line with X-axis (1, 0) (3, 0)
Intersection of line with Y-axis (0, 5) (0, 3)
Region Non-origin side Non-origin side

x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0 represent 1st quadrant.

Shaded portion XABCY is the feasible region, whose vertices are A(3, 0), B, and C(0, 5).

B is the point of intersection of the lines x + y = 3 and 5x + y = 5.

Solving the above equations, we get x = `1/2`, y = `5/2`

∴ B ≡ `(1/2, 5/2)`

Here, the objective function is Z = 7x + y

∴ Z at A(3, 0) = 7(3) + 0 = 21

Z at B`(1/2, 5/2) = 7(1/2) + 5/2 = 7/2 + 5/2` = 6

Z at C(0, 5) = 7(0) + 5 = 5

∴ Z has a minimum value of 5 at C(0, 5).

∴ Z has a minimum value of 5 when x = 0 and y = 5.
