Graph the constraints to find the feasible region.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%3E=2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%3E=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2By%3C=6\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%3C=6-x\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "As we see the feasible region is a triangle with vertices at (2,0),(2,4),and (0,6).
\n" ); document.write( "The max and min of the objective function occurs at one of these vertices.
\n" ); document.write( "(2,0): \"+z=3x%2B5y=3%282%29%2B5%280%29=6\"
\n" ); document.write( "(2,4): \"+z=3x%2B5y=3%282%29%2B5%284%29=26\"
\n" ); document.write( "(6,0): \"+z=3x%2B5y=3%286%29%2B5%280%29=18\"
\n" ); document.write( "The max value of 26 occurs at (2,4).
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
