Minimise Z = x + 2y
subject to 



Answer -

The feasible region determined by the constraints, 2x + y ≥3, x +2y ≥6, x ≥0, and y ≥0, is given below

A (6, 0) and B (0, 3) are the corner points of the feasibleregion

The values of Z at the corner points are given below

Corner point

Z = x + 2y

A (6, 0)

6

B (0, 3)

6

Here, the values of Z at points A and B are same. If we take anyother point such as (2, 2) on line x + 2y = 6, then Z = 6

Hence, the minimum value of Z occurs for more than 2 points.

Therefore, the value of Z is minimum at every point on the linex + 2y = 6
