✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: max Z=1680 at (12,6).
  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), (0,10), (12,6), (20,0).
  3. Evaluate the objective at every vertex: (0,0) → 0; (0,10) → 1200; (12,6) → 1680; (20,0) → 1600.
  4. The region is bounded. max Z=1680 at (12,6).
