Solution

Find solution using graphical method

MAX Z = 3x1 + 2.5x2
subject to
x1 + 2x2 >= 20
3x1 + 2x2 >= 50
and x1,x2 >= 0

Solution:
Problem is
MAX Z = 3 x 1 + 2.5 x 2
subject to
x 1 + 2 x 2 ≥ 20
3 x 1 + 2 x 2 ≥ 50
and x 1, x 2 ≥ 0;

Hint to draw constraints

1. To draw constraint x 1 + 2x 2 ≥ 20 → (1)

Treat it as x 1 + 2x 2 = 20

When x 1 = 0 then x 2 = ?

⇒ (0) + 2x 2 = 20

⇒ 2x 2 = 20

20
⇒ x2 = = 10
2

When x 2 = 0 then x 1 = ?

⇒ x 1 + 2(0) = 20

⇒ x 1 = 20

x 1 0 20

x 2 10 0

Put x 1 = 0, x 2 = 0 (origin) in x 1 + 2x 2 ≥ 20, then 0 + 0 ≥ 20, which is false,

The half plane not containing the origin is the region of the solution set of the inequation x 1 + 2x 2 ≥ 20

2. To draw constraint 3x 1 + 2x 2 ≥ 50 → (2)

Treat it as 3x 1 + 2x 2 = 50

When x 1 = 0 then x 2 = ?

⇒ 3(0) + 2x 2 = 50

⇒ 2x 2 = 50

50
⇒ x2 = = 25
2

When x 2 = 0 then x 1 = ?

⇒ 3x 1 + 2(0) = 50

⇒ 3x 1 = 50

50
⇒ x1 = = 16.67
3

x 1 0 16.67

x 2 25 0

Put x 1 = 0, x 2 = 0 (origin) in 3x 1 + 2x 2 ≥ 50, then 0 + 0 ≥ 50, which is false,

The half plane not containing the origin is the region of the solution set of the inequation 3x 1 + 2x 2 ≥ 50

The value of the objective function at each of these extreme points is as follows:
Extreme Point
Objective function value
Coordinates Lines through Extreme Point Z = 3x 1 + 2.5x 2
(x 1,x 2)

2 → 3x 1 + 2x 2 ≥ 50
A(0, 25) 3(0) + 2.5(25) = 62.5
3 → x1 ≥ 0

1 → x 1 + 2x 2 ≥ 20
B(15, 2.5) 3(15) + 2.5(2.5) = 51.25
2 → 3x 1 + 2x 2 ≥ 50

1 → x 1 + 2x 2 ≥ 20
C(20, 0) 3(20) + 2.5(0) = 60
4 → x2 ≥ 0

Problem has an unbounded solution.

Note: In maximization problem, if shaded area is open-ended. This means that the maximization is not possible and the LPP
has no finite solution. Hence the solution of the given problem is unbounded.
