Expert Answer
If you will plot the 4 equations on a graph - x?0 ,y?0,x+y?2 and 2x+3y?6
and shade the region defined by the inequality, you will find that its a closed triangle, with vertices at A(0,2); B(2,0) and C(3,0)
Now to identify the point of maxima, we can find value of Z at each of these vertices.
At point A: Z = 7(0) + 7(2) = 14
At point B: Z = 7(2) + 7(0) = 14
At point C: Z = 7(3) + 7(0) = 21
So, Z has a maximum value of 21 at point C (3,0)
