Question: PLEASE HELP! 1.) Solve the linear programming problem by the method of corners. Maximize P = 3x + 2y subject to x + y 8

PLEASE HELP!

1.) Solve the linear programming problem by the method of corners. Maximize P = 3x + 2y subject to x + y 8 2x + y 14 x 0, y 0 The maximum is P = ? at (x, y) = ?

2.) Solve the linear programming problem by the method of corners.

Maximize P = 2x + 6y
subject to x + y 10
3x + y 12
2x + 3y 12
x 0, y 0

The maximum is P = ? at (x, y) = ?

3.) A veterinarian has been asked to prepare a diet, x ounces of Brand A and y ounces of Brand B, for a group of dogs to be used in a nutrition study at the School of Animal Science. It has been stipulated that each serving should be no larger than 8 oz and must contain at least 29 units of Nutrient I and 20 units of Nutrient II. The vet has decided that the diet may be prepared from two brands of dog food: Brand A and Brand B. Each ounce of Brand A contains 3 units of Nutrient I and 4 units of Nutrient II.
