The maximum value of z=5x+3yz=5x+3y subjected to the constraints 2x+3y≥60,2x+y≤40;x,y≥02x+3y \ge 60, 2x+y \le 40; x,y \ge 0 is:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

The corner points of the feasible region are (0,20)(0,20), (0,40)(0,40) and (15,10)(15,10) (the intersection of 2x+3y=602x+3y=60 and 2x+y=402x+y=40).

Values of zz: 6060, 120120 and 105105 respectively.

The maximum is 120120 at (0,40)(0,40).
