The corner points of the bounded feasible region determined by the system of linear constraints are \((0,0),(5,0),(3,4)\) and \((0,5)\). Let \(Z=p x+q y\) where \(p, q>0\). Condition on \(p\) and \(q\) so that the maximum of \(Z\) occurs at both \((5,0)\) and \((3,4)\) is

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

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(2 q=p\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( Z(5,0) = Z(3,4) \) \( p(5) + q(0) = p(3) + q(4) \) \( 5p = 3p + 4q \) \( 2p = 4q \) \( p = 2q \)
