Notice that the given info consists of boundary lines for an area in the xy plane. We are interested ONLY in values of x and y that are 0 or greater (positive). Graph 5x + 3y $\leq$ 37 and 3x + 5y less than or equal to 35.

Find the points of intersection of all four straight lines (including the x- and y-axes). There will be 4 such points (incl. the origin).

Next, evaluate the objective function 2x + 14y at each of these 4 points. Which of the four results is the largest? the smallest? Label them as 'maximum' and 'minimum.'

Questions? Just comment on this discussion.
