The corner points of a bounded feasible region are \(( 0 , 5 ),( 6 , 1 ),( 1 7 , 2 )\) and \(( 4 , 2 9 )\).
If the maximum value of the objective function \(z=p x+q y\), where \(p>0\) and \(q>0\), occurs at two points \((17,2)\) and \((4,29)\), then the relation between \(p\) and \(q\) is :

  1. A \(2 p=3 q\)
  2. B \(13 p=27 q\)
  3. C \(q=3 p\)
  4. D \(p=3 q\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(13 p=27 q\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(17p + 2q = 4p + 29q\) \(17p - 4p = 29q - 2q\) \(13p = 27q\)
