Step 1: Understand the constraints. We are given the following constraints for the variables \(x\) and \(y\): \[ x + y \leq 10, \quad 3y - 2x \leq 15, \quad x \leq 6, \quad x, y \geq 0. \] These constraints define the feasible region on a graph.
Step 2: Identify the vertices of the feasible region. To find the feasible region, plot these constraints on a graph. The vertices where the constraints intersect are \( (0, 0), (0, 5), (6, 4), (6, 0) \).
Step 3: Evaluate the objective function at the vertices. The objective function is \( z = x + y \). Let's evaluate it at each vertex:
- At \( (0, 0), z = 0 + 0 = 0 \).
- At \( (0, 5), z = 0 + 5 = 5 \).
- At \( (6, 4), z = 6 + 4 = 10 \).
- At \( (6, 0), z = 6 + 0 = 6 \).
Step 4: Conclusion. The maximum value of \( z \) is 10, which occurs at \( (6, 4) \).
For a Linear Programming Problem, find min \( Z = 5x + 3y \) (where \( Z \) is the objective function) for the feasible region shaded in the given figure.
