  1. A 20
  2. B 27
  3. C 30
  4. D 0
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 27

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Vertices of feasible region: \((0,0)\) For \(x=0\): \(y=9\) (from \(3x+4y=36\)) \(\implies (0,9)\) For \(y=0\): \(x=10\) (from \(x+y=10\)) \(\implies (10,0)\) Intersection of \(x+y=10\) and \(3x+4y=36\): \(3(10-y)+4y=36 \implies 30-3y+4y=36 \implies y=6\)…
