The corner points of the feasible region determined by the system of linear constraints are as shown below:
Answer the following questions.
(a)
Let $Z = 3x - 4y$ be the objective function. Find the maximum and minimum value of $Z$ and also the corresponding points at which the maximum and minimum value occurs.
(b)
Let $Z = px + qy$ where $p, q > 0$ be the objective function. Find the condition on $p$ and $q$ so that the maximum value of $Z$ occurs at $B(4,10)$ and $C(6,8)$.
(c)
State the number of optimal solutions in this case.
