In Exercises 5–14, an objective function and a system of linear inequalities representing constraints are given.
- a. Graph the system of inequalities representing the constraints.
- b. Find the value of the objective function at each corner of the graphed region.
- c. Use the values in part (b) to determine the maximum value of the objective function and the values of x and y for which the maximum occurs.
