Minimum value of Z is - 48 which occurs at (0, 8).
ii
Maximum value of Z is 20, which occurs at (5, 0).
iii
Maximum of Z-Minimum of Z = 20 - (- 48) = 20 + 48 = 68
OR
The corner points of the feasible region are U(0, 0) A(3, 0) B(3, 2) C(2,3) D(0, 3)
| Corner Points | Value of z = 4x - 6y |
| (0,3) | 4 x 0 - 6 x 3 = - 18 |
| (5,0) | 4 x 5 - 6 x 0 = 20 |
| (6,8) | 4 x 6 - 6 x 8 = - 24 |
| (0,8) | 4 x 0 - 6 x 8 = - 48 |
ii
| Corner Points | Value of z = 4x - 6y |
| (0,3) | 4 x 0 - 6 x 3 = - 18 |
| (5,0) | 4 x 5 - 6 x 0 = 20 |
| (6,8) | 4 x 6 - 6 x 8 = - 24 |
| (0,8) | 4 x 0 - 6 x 8 = - 48 |
