For a linear programming problem, the maximum value of the objective function z=2x+3yz=2x+3y subject to constraints:

x−y≤−1,−x+y≤0,x,y≥0x-y\le-1, -x+y\le0, x,y\ge0 is

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

The first constraint gives y≥x+1y\ge x+1 and the second gives y≤xy\le x.

These cannot hold together, so the feasible region is empty and no maximum exists.
