In reference to a linear programming problem (LPP), which of the following statements are true?

A. The optimal value of the objective function is attained at the points given by intersections of inequation with the axes only.

B. The objective function of a LPP is a linear function to be optimized.

C. Every LPP admits an optimal solution.

D. The region represented by the inequation system, x,y≥0x, y\geq0, x+2y≤4,3x+y≥3,4x+3y≥6x+2y\leq4, 3x+y\geq3, 4x+3y\geq6 is bounded in the first quadrant.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

B is the definition of the objective function. For D, the constraint x+2y≤4x+2y\le4 together with x,y≥0x,y\ge0 confines the region, so it is bounded. A is false because the optimum occurs at corner points of the feasible region, not only at axis intercepts, and C is false since unbounded problems may have no optimal solution.
