Consider a LPP with objective function Z=px+qyZ = px + qy subjected to certain constraints with a bounded feasible region such that maximum Z=80Z = 80 and minimum Z=52Z = 52, which occur at the corner points (0,8)(0, 8) and (2,4)(2, 4) respectively, Then the value of p+qp+q is:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

At (0,8)(0,8): 8q=808q = 80, so q=10q = 10.

At (2,4)(2,4): 2p+4q=522p + 4q = 52, giving 2p=122p = 12 and p=6p = 6.

Hence p+q=16p+q = 16.
