If z=px+qyz = px + qy, where p,q>0p, q > 0, is the objective function. Then the condition on p and q so that the maximum value of z occurs at A(4, 10) and B(6, 8), is:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

If the maximum occurs at both points, zz has equal values there: 4p+10q=6p+8q4p + 10q = 6p + 8q. This gives 2q=2p2q = 2p, so p=qp = q.
