The objective function of an LPP is \(Z=a x+b y\). If the maximum value of the objective function is 180 , which occurs at two points \((15,15)\) and \((0,20)\), then which one of the following is true?

  1. A \(a=3, b=9\)
  2. B \(a=9, b=3\)
  3. C \(a=6, b=6\)
  4. D \(a=4, b=8\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(a=3, b=9\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For \((15,15)\): \(15a + 15b = 180 \implies a+b=12\) For \((0,20)\): \(a(0) + b(20) = 180 \implies 20b = 180 \implies b=9\) Substitute \(b=9\) into \(a+b=12\): \(a+9=12 \implies a=3\) Thus, \(a=3, b=9\).
