Let there be x cakes of first kind and y cakes of second kind. Therefore,
x ≥ 0 and y ≥ 0
The given information can be complied in a table as follows.
| Flour (g) | Fat (g) |
Cakes of first kind, x | 200 | 25 |
Cakes of second kind, y | 100 | 50 |
Availability | 5000 | 1000 |
Total numbers of cakes, Z, that can be made are,
The mathematical formulation of the given problem is
Maximize
subject to the constraints,
The feasible region determined by the system of constraints is as follows

The corner points are A (25, 0), B (20, 10), O (0, 0), and C (0, 20).
The values of Z at these corner points are as follows.

Thus, the maximum numbers of cakes that can be made are 30 (20 of one kind and 10 of the other kind).

Let the mixture contain x kg of food P and y kg of food Q. Therefore, x ≥ 0 and y ≥ 0
The given information can be compiled in a table as follows.
| Vitamin A (units/kg) | Vitamin B (units/kg) | Cost (Rs/kg) |
Food P | 3 | 5 | 60 |
Food Q | 4 | 2 | 80 |
Requirement (units/kg) | 8 | 11 |
|
The mixture must contain at least 8 units of vitamin A and 11 units of vitamin B. Therefore, the constraints are
Total cost, Z, of purchasing food is,
The mathematical formulation of the given problem is
Minimise
subject to the constraints,
The feasible region determined by the system of constraints is as follows.

It can be seen that the feasible region is unbounded.
The corner points of the feasible region are A(8/3,0) ,B(2,1/2) and C(0,11/2)
The values of Z at these co

Maximise , subject to
The corresponding equation of the given inequalities are
The graph of the given inequalities is shown.

There is no common point in the two shaded region. Thus, there is no feasible region.
Z has no maximum value.

The feasible region unbounded.
The values of Z at corner points A (6,0), B (4,1), and C (3,2) are as follows

As the feasible region is unbounded z=1 may or may not be the maximum values.
So, we plot a graph of
The resulting region has points in common with the feasible region.
Therefore z=1 is not the maximum value. Z has no maximum value.

Minimize and Maximise
Subject to
The corresponding equation of the given inequalities are
The graph of the inequalities is shown below.

The shaded bounded region ABCD is the feasible region with the corner points.
A (0,50), B, (20,40), C (50,100), D (0,200)
The values of Z at these corner points are

The maximum value of Z is 400 at D (0,200) and the minimum value of Z is 100 at all the points on the line segment joining the points A (0,50) and B (20,40).

Subject to
The corresponding equation of the given inequalities are

The feasible region is unbounded the corner point are A (6,0), B (0,3)
The value of Z at these corner points are follows.

Since, the feasible region is unbounded, a graph of is drawn.
Also since there is no point common in feasible region and region .

Such that
The corresponding equation of the given inequalities are
The graph of the given inequalities is

The feasible region is unbounded. The corner points are
The values of Z at these corner points as follows.

As the feasible region is unbounded, 7 may or may not be minimum value of Z.
We draw the graph of inequality .
The feasible region has no common point with .
