Question 176832: Which point gives the minimum value for P = 3x + 2y and lies within
the system of restrictions?


A. (1, 2) B. (0, 0) C. (5, 5) D. (1, 5)
1 < x < 6
2 < y < 5
x + y < 10

None of them lie within the system of restrictions:

(1, 2) violates both 1 < x and 2 < y

(0, 0) violates both 1 < x and 2 < y

(5, 5) violates both y < 5 and x + y < 10

(1, 5) violates both 1 < x and y < 5

Now if you actually meant less than or equal, as in , in all cases, that would be a totally different story. If you need to express 'less than or equal' or 'greater than or equal' in plain text, just use <= or >=
