NCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 4is given below

NCERT Solutions Mathematics Class 12 Chapter 12 - 5

O (0, 0), A (4, 0), B (2, 3) and C (0, 4) are the corner points of the feasible region

The values of Z at these corner points are given below

Corner pointZ = – 3x + 4y
O (0, 0)0
A (4, 0)-12Minimum
B (2, 3)6
C (0, 4)16

Hence, the minimum value of Z is – 12 at the point (4, 0)
