Question 38

Multiple Choice

Use the simplex method to solve the linear programming problem.
-Maximize z=5x1+3x2z=5 x_{1}+3 x_{2}
Subject to: 2x1+4x2132 x_{1}+4 x_{2} \leq 13
x1+2x26x_{1}+2 x_{2} \leq 6
With x10,x20\quad x_{1} \geq 0, x_{2} \geq 0


A) Maximum is 18 when x1=0,x2=6x_{1}=0, x_{2}=6
B) Maximum is 9 when x1=0,x2=3x_{1}=0, x_{2}=3
C) Maximum is 30 when x1=6,x2=0x_{1}=6, x_{2}=0
D) Maximum is 32.5 when x1=6.5,x2=0\mathrm{x}_{1}=6.5, \mathrm{x}_{2}=0
