Algebra.Com's Answer #644161 by robertb(5830)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The feasibility region is an unbounded region with the following corner points:\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(0,0), (1, 19), and (0,1).\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "By the fundamental theorem of linear programming, the max and min are among these corner points.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "At (0,0), f = 0-2*0 = 0 \n" ); document.write( "At (1, 19), f = 1 - 2*-19 = -37 \n" ); document.write( "At (0,1), f = 0 - 2*1 = -2\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Therefore the maximum value is 0 and the minimum value is -37. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
