Systems of inequalities and linear programming — Homework

List every vertex first, then evaluate the objective function at each one before naming the maximum.

  1. 1.Vertices (0,0), (0,6), (3,5), (8,0); P=50x+60y. Evaluate P at each vertex and state the maximum.
  2. 2.Is (0,0) a solution to x+3y<=18?
  3. 3.Why do we only need to test the corner points, not every point in the feasible region, to find a maximum?
  4. 4.A t-shirt shop has profit P=8x+6y with constraints x+y<=50 and 2x+y<=80. Find all four vertices (with the axes and their intersection).
  5. 5.Using those vertices and P=8x+6y, which vertex gives the maximum profit?
