The corner points of the bounded feasible region associated with the LPP: Maximize \(Z=p x+q y, p, q>0\) are (0, 0), (3.5, 0), \(\left(\frac{112}{59}, \frac{135}{59}\right)\) and (0,3). If the optimum value of Z occurs at both \(\left(\frac{112}{59}, \frac{135}{59}\right)\) and (0,3), then

  1. A 3q = 5p
  2. B 8p = 3q
  3. C 5p = 8q
  4. D 3p = 5q
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 8p = 3q

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Value of Z at \(\left(\frac{112}{59}, \frac{135}{59}\right)\): \(Z_1 = p\left(\frac{112}{59}\right) + q\left(\frac{135}{59}\right) = \frac{112p + 135q}{59}\) Value of Z at (0,3): \(Z_2 = p(0) + q(3) = 3q\) Since the optimum value occurs at both points: \(Z_1 = Z_2\)…
