what point in the feasible region maximizes the objective function?

OpenStudy (tester97):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok we should sketch this region first.. can you to it ?

OpenStudy (tester97):

can i wat?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you sketch the region for me?

OpenStudy (tester97):

how?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok look at y <=-x+3 now first we sketch y=-x+3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the attchment wont work imma have too draw it out hold on it take a bit

OpenStudy (tester97):

hold on im goin to try to graph it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1382984800293:dw| look at y <=-x+3 now first we sketch y=-x+3

OpenStudy (tester97):

yea mine looks something like that on the graphing calculator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this line is y = -x +3 agree ?

OpenStudy (tester97):

\[y \le-x+3\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes now we will add the graph y = (1/3)x + 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1382985016406:dw| Like this. Do you have this?

OpenStudy (tester97):

my graph is scrambled up so idk...........

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well something like that since the intersection of y =(1/3)x + 1 and y = -x +3 is -x +3 = (1/3)x + 1 -(4/3)x =-2 x = 1.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Are you understanding this?

OpenStudy (tester97):

noooo im not using equal signs im using inequality signs so this it totally different

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it has the same value I just put an equal sign sorry if I confused you. I'm trying here math is hard for me too...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I probally should of mentioned this it would of helped so now the region that satisfies x >= 0 y >=0 is the first quadrant right ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Since the first quadrant has only positive x values and positive y values

OpenStudy (tester97):

ahhhhh nvm i got the answer now it was so obvious *facepalm* thanks for your help thought

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the awnswer would be (3,0)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Glad I could help you though. Good luck :)
