If the feasible region R is bounded, Z has:
AOnly a minimum
BNeither of them
CBoth max and min
DOnly a maximum
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Both max and min
1. A bounded region is closed on every side.
2. The objective function is evaluated at each corner.
3. So Z has both a maximum and a minimum on R.
4. The answer is both max and min.
