By the corner-point theorem, the optimum of a bounded LPP occurs:
AAt the centroid of the feasible region on the school chart
BAt a vertex (corner point) of the feasible region on the chart
COnly at the origin of the coordinate plane on the school chart
DOn the boundary of the feasible region, but never at a corner
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. At a vertex (corner point) of the feasible region on the chart
A bounded LPP attains its optimum at a vertex of the feasible region.
