Solution

Here, objective function

Min. Z = 5x + 10y

Subject to constraints

x + 2y ≤ 120,

x + y ≥ 60

x – 2y ≥ 0

x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0

Changing inequations to equations, we get

x + 2y = 120  ...(i)

x 0 120
y 60 0

x + y = 60  ...(ii)

x 0 60
y 60 0

x – 2y = 0  ...(iii)

x 0 120
y 0 60

On solving equations (i) and (ii), we get point of intersection E(0, 60).

On solving equations (ii) and (iii), we get point of intersection C(40, 20).

On solving equations (i) and (iii), we get point of intersection B(60, 30).

Corner Points Z = 5x + 10y
A(120, 0) Z = 5 × 120 + 10 × 0 = 600
B(60, 30) Z = 5 × 60 + 10 × 30 = 300 + 300 = 600
C(40, 20) Z = 5 × 40 + 10 × 20 = 200 + 200 = 400
D(60, 0) Z = 5 × 60 + 0 × 0 = 300 `rightarrow` Min.

Hence, min. value Z is 300, when x = 60 and y = 0.
