Maximize Z = 3x + 2y subject to x + 2y ≤ 10, 3x + y ≤ 15, x, y ≥ 0.
It is given in the question that,
Z = 3x + 2y
We have to subject on the following equation:
x +2y ≤ 10, 3x+y ≤ 15, x, y ≥ 0
3x+y ≤ 15
(x, y) = (0, 15), (5, 0)
(x, y) = (0, 5), (10, 0)
We can clearly see that Z is maximum at (4, 3). Hence, maximum value of Z will be 18
