Question

Solve the following linear programming problems by graphical method.

Maximize Z = 6x1 + 8x2 subject to constraints 30x1 + 20x2 ≤ 300; 5x1 + 10x2 ≤ 110; and x1, x2 ≥ 0.

Graph

Solution

Given that 30x1 + 20x2 ≤ 300

Let 30x1 + 20x2 = 300

Therefore 3x1 + 2x2 = 30

x1 0 10
x2 15 0

Also given that 5x1 + 10x2 ≤ 110

Let 5x1 + 10x2 = 110

x1 + 2x2 = 22

x1 0 22
x2 11 0

To get point of intersection, (i.e., the to get co-ordinates of B)

3x1 + 2x2 = 30 …….(1)

x1 + 2x2 = 22 ……..(2)

2x1 = 8 ......[Equation (1) – (2)]

x1 = 4

x1 = 4 substitute in (1),

x1 + 2x2 = 22

4 + 2x2 = 22

2x2 = 18

x2 = 9

i.e., B is (4, 9)

The feasible region satisfying all the given conditions is OABC.

The co-ordinates of the points are O(0, 0), A(10, 0), B(4, 9), C(0, 11).

Corner points Z = 6x1 + 8x2
O(0, 0) 0
A(10, 0) 60
B(4, 9) 6 × 4 + 8 × 9 = 96
C(0, 11) 88

The maximum value of Z occurs at B(4, 9).

∴ The optimal solution is x1 = 4, x2 = 9 and Zmax = 96
