The corner points of the bounded feasible region for an LPP are (0,5),(6,6),(9,9)(0,5), (6,6), (9,9) and (0,12)(0,12). If the objective function is Z=px+qy;p,q>0Z = px + qy; p,q>0, then the condition on pp and qq so that the maximum of ZZ occurs at (9,9)(9,9) and (0,12)(0,12) is

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

If the maximum occurs at both (9,9)(9,9) and (0,12)(0,12), the objective values are equal there.

So 9p+9q=12q9p + 9q = 12q, giving 9p=3q9p = 3q, i.e. p=q/3p = q/3.
