alleryThe optimal value of Z occurs at which points of the region?
AOutside points
BCorner points
CMiddle points
DRandom points
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Corner points
1. Theorem 1 pins the optimum to the boundary.
2. Specifically it lands on a vertex of the polygon.
3. So the optimum occurs at a corner point.
4. The answer is corner points.
