✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: max Z=5440 at (8,16).
  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), (0,24), (8,16), (16,0).
  3. Evaluate the objective at every vertex: (0,0) → 0; (0,24) → 4560; (8,16) → 5440; (16,0) → 4800.
  4. The region is bounded. max Z=5440 at (8,16).
