The corner points of the bounded feasible region for an LPP are (0, 20), (3, 12), (6,8), (0, 15).
The objective function is \(Z=a x+\beta y\), where \(a, \beta>0\).
If the maximum of Z occurs at the corner points (3, 12) and (6,8), then the relationship between \(a\) and \(\beta\) is:

  1. A \(a=\frac{2}{3} \beta\)
  2. B \(\beta=\frac{4}{3} a\)
  3. C \(a+\beta=\frac{1}{2}\)
  4. D \(a=\frac{4}{3} \beta\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(a=\frac{4}{3} \beta\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(Z(3, 12) = Z(6, 8)\) \(a(3) + \beta(12) = a(6) + \beta(8)\) \(3a + 12\beta = 6a + 8\beta\) \(12\beta - 8\beta = 6a - 3a\) \(4\beta = 3a\) \(a = \frac{4}{3} \beta\)
