Use the Simplex Method to Solve the Linear Programming Problem z=2x1+5x2+3x3z=2 x_{1}+5 x_{2}+3 x_{3}

Question 126

Multiple Choice

Use the simplex method to solve the linear programming problem.
-Maximize z=2x1+5x2+3x3z=2 x_{1}+5 x_{2}+3 x_{3}
Subject to: 2x1+x2+3x392 x_{1}+x_{2}+3 x_{3} \leq 9
4x1+3x2+5x3124 x_{1}+3 x_{2}+5 x_{3} \leq 12
With x10,x20,x30\quad x_{1} \geq 0, x_{2} \geq 0, x_{3} \geq 0


A) Maximum is 20 when x1=0,x2=4,x3=0x_{1}=0, x_{2}=4, x_{3}=0
B) Maximum is 60 when x1=0,x2=9,x3=5x_{1}=0, x_{2}=9, x_{3}=5
C) Maximum is 45 when x1=0,x2=9,x3=0x_{1}=0, x_{2}=9, x_{3}=0
D) Maximum is 12 when x1=6,x2=0,x3=0x_{1}=6, x_{2}=0, x_{3}=0
