Question

Use the feasible set shown to find the optimal value to maximize the objective function p=28x + 49y

Answer 1

First, find the (x,y) coords of each "corner" of your shaded region.
then use those x and y numbers in your p=28x + 49y
pick the pair that makes "p" the largest.

Answer 2

starting from the top I have 2,5 then 3,1 then 0,0 and lastly on the left 0,2

how can it make it the largest?

Answer 3

we test each pair
for example, (2,5) x=2 and y=5 in p=28x + 49y
p = 28*2 + 49*5= 301

now test the other pairs. the pair that gives the biggest p is the winner

Answer 4

my answer is 301!
