Question: Given the following linear programming problem, use the graphical method to solve the model. Max Z=120X + 60Y s.t. 50Y 2500 80X + 60Y 4800

  1. Given the following linear programming problem, use the graphical method to solve the model.

Max Z=120X + 60Y

s.t. 50Y 2500

80X + 60Y 4800

90X + 20Y 1800

70X 25Y 0

X, Y 0

  1. Draw all constraints and identify the feasible region in the graph paper given below. (**You can either (1) draw on paper by hand, or, print and draw it on below graph paper, then take a photo and insert the graph in the area below; or (2) draw it directly in Word using lines, arrows and freeform shapes. Using other software or any tools on web is NOT acceptable.)
