MCQ
The objective function of LPP defined over the convex set attains its optimum value at.
  • A
    Atleast two of the corner points.
  • B
    All the corner points.
  • C
    Atleast one of the corner points.
  • D
    None of the corner points.

Answer

  1. Atleast one of the corner points.

Solution:

Let Z = ax + by be the objective function

When Z has optimum value(maximum or minimum), where the variables

x and y are subject to constraints described by linear inequalities, this optimum value must occur at a corner points of the feasible region.

Thus, the function attains its optimum value at one of the corner points.
