In reference to linear programming problem (LPP), which of the following statement is NOT correct?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

An unbounded feasible region does not automatically rule out an optimum. For instance, minimising z=x+yz=x+y over an unbounded region can still have a finite minimum at a corner.

The optimum fails to exist only when the objective is unbounded in the improving direction, so statement 2 is the incorrect one. The other three are standard results.
