The corner points of the bounded feasible region determined by the system of linear inequalities are (0, 0), (4, 0), (2, 4) and (0, 5). If maximum value of z = ax + by, where a, b > 0 occurs at both (2, 4) and (4, 0) then
- A a = 2b
- B 2a = b
- C a = b
- D 3a = b
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) a = 2b
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Value of \( z \) at (2, 4): \( z_1 = a(2) + b(4) = 2a + 4b \) Value of \( z \) at (4, 0): \( z_2 = a(4) + b(0) = 4a \) Since maximum occurs at both points: \( 2a + 4b = 4a \) \( 4b = 2a \) \( a = 2b \)
