Maharashtra-Board-12th-Commerce-Maths-Solutions-Chapter-6-Linear-Programming-Ex-6.2-Q1.1
The feasible solution is AOBE
Where A(4, 0) O(0, 0) B(0, 6)
E is the point of intersection of x + y = 6 and x = 4.
∴ 4 + y = 6
∴ y = 2
∴ E = (4, 2)
Maharashtra-Board-12th-Commerce-Maths-Solutions-Chapter-6-Linear-Programming-Ex-6.2-Q1.2
∴ z is maximum at (4, 12) and the maximum value of z = 60
