Solution

The feasible region determined by the constraints, x + 2y ≥ 100, 2x – y ≤ 0, 2x + y ≤ 200, x, y ≥ 0, is given below.


A (0, 50), B (20, 40), C (50, 100) and D (0, 200) are the corner points of the feasible region.

The values of Z at these corner points are given below.

Corner point Corresponding value of
Z = x + 2y
 
A (0, 50) 100 Minimum
B (20, 40) 100 Minimum
C (50, 100) 250  
D (0, 200) 400  

The minimum value of Z is 100 at all the points on the line segment joining the points (0, 50) and (20, 40).
