Question
Solve the following linear programming problem graphically.Minimise $\text{z = 3x + 5y}$
subject to the constraints
$\text{x + 2y}\geq 10$
$\text{x + y}\geq 6$
$\text{3x + y}\geq 8$
$\text{x, y}\geq 0.$

Answer


Vertices are A (10, 0), 2, 4 ), C(1, 5) & D (0, 8)

$\text{Z = 3 x + 5y}$ is minimum

at B (2, 4) and the minimum Value is 26.

on Ploting $\text{(3x + 5y < 26)}$

since these it no common point with the feasible

region, Hence, $\text{x = 2, y = 4}$ gives minimum Z
