Mathematics Question on Linear Programmig Problem
Which one of the following represents the correct feasible region determined by the following constraints of an LPP?
x+y≥10,2x+2y≤25,x≥0,y≥0
Solution
To solve this problem, we need to first plot the given constraints and identify the feasible region:
Constraint 1: x + y ≥ 10. This is a straight line with slope -1. The feasible region is above this line.
Constraint 2: 2x + 2y ≤ 25. Simplifying this inequality, we get x + y ≤ 12.5, which is a straight line with slope -1. The feasible region is below this line.
Constraint 3: x ≥ 0. This constraint restricts the feasible region to the right of the y-axis.
Constraint 4: y ≥ 0. This constraint restricts the feasible region to above the x-axis.
Thus, the feasible region is the intersection of the regions defined by these four constraints.
The graph that correctly represents this feasible region is shown in Option (3).
