includes the line and all the point to one side of that line.
What side?
Obviously the side with the origin (0,0), because is a solution.
The line obviously passes through the points (6,0) and (0,6) because

includes the line (the y-axis) and all the points to the right of it, like (1,0), with that satisfy .

includes the line (the x-axis) and all the points above it, like (0,1), with that satisfy .

The space that satisfies all those constraints is the quadrilateral OABC below.
The maximum value for P is at a vertex or along one entire edge of that quadrilateral.
Point B is the solution to , which is obviously .

The value of
at O(0,0) is ;
at A(0,6) is ;
at B(4,2) is ; and
at C(5,0) is
So the maximum is at C(5,0).
