The maximum value of \(z=2 x+3 y\) subject to the constraints \(3 x-3 y \geq 0,2 x+2 y \leq 12, x \geq 0, y \geq 0\) occurs at the point:

  1. A \((0,0)\)
  2. B \((6,0)\)
  3. C \((0,6)\)
  4. D \((3,3)\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \((3,3)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Vertices of feasible region: \( (0,0) \) \( (6,0) \) \( (3,3) \) Evaluate \(z=2x+3y\) at each vertex: \(z(0,0) = 2(0) + 3(0) = 0 \) \(z(6,0) = 2(6) + 3(0) = 12 \) \(z(3,3) = 2(3) + 3(3) = 6 + 9 = 15 \) The maximum value occurs at \( (3,3) \).
