The limitations that are specified are
2x – 3y ≤ 6
2x + y ≥ 2
2x + 3y ≤ 12.
x ≥ 0.
y ≥ 0.
These constraints establish the following corner points of the feasible region:
A: (0,4)
B: (9/2,1)
C: 2x – 3y = 6 and 2x + y = 2 intersect (solving these two equations yields (2,0), but since y is negative, this point is not possible).
D: The intersection of 2x + y = 2 and 2x + y = 12 results in (6/5,16/5), but since x is negative, this point is not possible.
E: 2x + 3y = 12 and 2x – 3y = 6 intersect; solving these two equations yields (9/4,3/4)
The objective function ∅(x,y) = 4x + 6y should now be assessed at each of these corner points:
A: ∅(0,4) = 4(0) + 6(4) = 24
B: ∅(9/2, 1) = 4(9/2) + 6(1) = 18 + 6 = 24
C: Not possible
D: Not possible
E: ∅ (9/4, 3/4) = 4(9/4) + 6(3/4) = 9 + 9/2 = 27/2
Consequently, the corner points (0,4) and (9/2,1) produce a minimum value of 24 for the objective function, and the minimum value of the function ∅(x,y) = 4x + 6y under the specified constraints occurs at these points.
