Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

The bounded shaded region has corner points (0,0)(0,0), C(0,40)C(0,40), B(30,20)B(30,20) and D(40,0)D(40,0). Then z=4x+3yz=4x+3y equals 00, 120120, 180180 and 160160 respectively, so the maximum 180180 occurs at B(30,20)B(30,20) and the difference between maximum and minimum is 180180, not 120120.
