If the objective function for an LPP is Z=2x+5yZ = 2x + 5y and the corner points of the bounded feasible region are (0, 0), (5, 0) , (85,65)\left(\dfrac{8}{5},\dfrac{6}{5}\right) and (0, 2) then the maximum value of zz occurs at

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

Evaluating Z=2x+5yZ = 2x+5y: at (0,0)(0,0), Z=0Z=0; at (5,0)(5,0), Z=10Z=10; at (85,65)\left(\dfrac{8}{5},\dfrac{6}{5}\right), Z=9.2Z=9.2; at (0,2)(0,2), Z=10Z=10.

The maximum value 1010 is attained at two corner points.

When this happens, every point on the segment joining them gives the same maximum.
