Question 1112501: Maximize p = x + y subject to
x + 2y ≥ 30
2x + 2y ≤ 30
2x + y ≥ 30
x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0.
I know the region is empty, but what does P equal?

.
Since the region is empty, there is no NEITHER x NOR y.

So, there is no subject to talk about.

If you do not have money in your pocket, you can not pay.

Do I need explain more ?

If there is no air, then you can not breath.

And so on . . . .


Is it clear ?

Actually, your question is/was good. I like when people ask such questions.
