Q117 / 180 · KCET 2024 · Mathematics

Corner points of the feasible region for an LPP are $(0,2),(3,0),(6,0),(6,8)$ and $(0,5)$. Let $Z=4 x+6 y$ be the objective function. The minimum value of $z$ occurs at

  • A
    Only $(0,2)$
  • B
    Only $(3,0)$
  • C
    The mid-point of the line segment joining the points $(0,2)$ and $(3,0)$
  • Correct answer
    D
    Any point on the line segment joining the points $(0,2)$ and $(3,0)$

Solution

Figure
$\therefore$ Minimum of $Z$ occur at $(0,2)$ and $(3,0)$. $\therefore$ Minimum value of $Z$ occur at any point on the line segment $(0,2)$ and $(3,0)$.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
