Find the maximum value of
1 answer:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
34
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph shows the vertex of the feasible region that is farthest from the origin is (2, 4). These are the values of (x, y) that maximize P.
P = 5(2) +6(4) = 10 +24 = 34
The maximum value of P is 34.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The feasible region is entirely contained within the first quadrant. We have left off the x ≥ 0 and y ≥ 0 constraints to leave the inequalities uncomplicated.
The graph shows the line 34 = 5x +6y so you can see that it only intersects the feasible region (doubly-shaded area) at the vertex where the objective function is maximized.
