Question
Maximum Z = 4x + 3y
Subject to
$3\text{x}+4\text{y}\leq24$
$8\text{x}+6\text{y}\leq48$
$\text{x}\leq5$
$\text{y}\leq6$
$\text{x},\text{y}\geq0$

Answer

We need to maximize Z= 4x + 3y
First, we will convert the given inequations into equations, we obtain the following equations:
3x + 4y = 24, 8x + 6y = 48, x = 5, y = 6, x = 0 and y = 0.
The line 3x + 4y = 24 meets the coordinate axis at A(8, 0) and B(0, 6).
Join these points to obtain the line 3x + 4y = 24.
Clearly, (0, 0) satisfies the inequation $3\text{x}+4\text{y}\leq24$.
So, the region in xy-plane that contains the origin represents the solution set of the given equation.
The line 8x + 6y = 48 meets the coordinate axis at C(6, 0) and D(0, 8).
Join these points to obtain the line 8x + 6y = 48.
Clearly, (0, 0) satisfies the inequation $8\text{x}+6\text{y}\leq48$.
So, the region in xy-plane that contains the origin represents the solution set of the given equation.
x = 5 is the line passing through x = 5 parallel to the Y axis.
y = 6 is the line passing through y = 6 parallel to the X axis.
Region represented by $\text{x}\geq0$ and $\text{y}\geq0$: Since, every point in the first quadrant satisfies these inequations.
So, the first quadrant is the region represented by the inequations.
These lines are drawn using a suitable scale.

The corner points of the feasible region are O(0, 0), G(5, 0), $\text{F}\Big(5,\frac{4}{3}\Big),\text{E}\Big(\frac{24}{7},\frac{24}{7}\Big)$ and B(0, 6).
The values of Z at these corner points are as follows.
$\text{Corner point}$ $\text{Z}=4\text{x}+3\text{y}$
$\text{O}(0, 0)$ $4\times0+3\times0=0$
$\text{G}(5, 0)$ $4\times5+3\times0=20$
$\text{F}\Big(5,\frac{4}{3}\Big)$ $4\times5+3\times\frac{4}{3}=24$
$\text{E}\Big(\frac{24}{7},\frac{24}{7}\Big)$ $4\times\frac{24}{7}+3\times\frac{24}{7}=\frac{196}{7}=24$
$\text{B}(0, 6)$ $4\times0+3\times6=18$
We see that the maximum value of the objective function Z is 24 which is at $\text{F}\Big(5,\frac{4}{3}\Big)$ and $\text{E}\Big(\frac{24}{7},\frac{24}{7}\Big)$.
Thus. the optimal value of is 24.
