Can there be more than one point in the feasible region where the maximum or minimum occurs? Explain.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No. You must always check to see if a solution exists. If it does, it will be at a corner point. (thanks for checking out the prob for me though @sirm3d

OpenStudy (sirm3d):

i would say yes, it's possible. this happens when the function to maximize/minimize is parallel to one of the constraints.|dw:1358724692671:dw|

OpenStudy (sirm3d):

|dw:1358724889181:dw|the optimal solution is the same as one of the constraints, hence there will be many solutions (theoretically)
