MCQ
The objective function of LPP defined over the convex set attains its optimum value at.
  • A
    Atleast two of the corner points.
  • B
    All the corner points.
  • Atleast one of the corner points.
  • D
    None of the corner points.

Answer

Correct option: C.
Atleast one of the corner points.
Let Z = ax + by be the objective function
When Z has optimum value(maximum or minimum), where the variables
x and y are subject to constraints described by linear inequalities, this optimum value must occur at a corner points of the feasible region.
Thus, the function attains its optimum value at one of the corner points.
