✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: min Z=-30 at (0,2).
  1. Draw each boundary ax+by=c and retain the closed half-plane ax+by≤c; intersect all constraints, including x,y≥0.
  2. Solving pairs of boundary equations and rejecting points violating any inequality gives vertices: (0,0), (0,2), (3,4), (7,0).
  3. Evaluate the objective at every vertex: (0,0) → 0; (0,2) → -30; (3,4) → -21; (7,0) → 91.
  4. The region is bounded. min Z=-30 at (0,2).
