The corner points of the feasible region determined by the system of linear constraints are (0, 0), (0, 40), (20, 40), (60, 20), (60, 0). The objective function is Z = 4x + 3y.
Compare the quantity in Column A and Column B
A. The quantity in column A is greater
Z = 4x + 3y
Corner points- (0, 0), (0, 40), (20, 40), (60, 20), (60, 0)
As feasible region is bounded.
Value of Z at corner points-
At (0, 0), Z = 0
At (0, 40), Z = 120
At (20, 40), Z = 200
At (60, 20), Z = 360
At (60, 0), Z = 240
Clearly, maximum value of Z is 360, which is greater than 325.
