The corner points of the feasible region for an L.P.P. are (0,10)(0, 10), (5,5)(5, 5), (15,15)(15, 15) and (0,20)(0, 20). If the objective function is z=px+qyz = px + qy; p,q>0p, q > 0, then the condition on pp and qq so that the maximum of zz occurs at (15,15)(15, 15) and (0,20)(0, 20) is

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

If maximum occurs at both (15,15)(15,15) and (0,20)(0,20), the objective values must be equal:

15p+15q=0⋅p+20q15p + 15q = 0\cdot p + 20q

15p=5q15p = 5q

q=3pq = 3p.
