✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: max Z=392 at (8,12).
  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), (0,20), (8,12), (16,0).
  3. Evaluate the objective at every vertex: (0,0) → 0; (0,20) → 360; (8,12) → 392; (16,0) → 352.
  4. The region is bounded. max Z=392 at (8,12).
