The feasible region for a LPP is shown in following figure. Find the minimum value of $Z = 11x + 7y$.
Official Solution
From the figure, it is clear that feasible region is bounded with
coordinates of corner points as (0,3),(3,2) and (0,5).
Here, $Z = 11x + 7y$.
$x + 3y = 9$ and $x + y = 5$
$\Rightarrow$ $2y = 4$
$\therefore y = 2$ and $x = 3$
So, intersection points of $x + y = 5$ and $x + 3y = 9$ is (3,2).
Hence, the minimum value of Z is 21 at (0,3).
