I can't see the graph image — could you upload it or describe where regions A–D lie relative to the axes and the lines x = 25, y = 15, and x + y = 30?
Tip for identifying the correct region: the feasible set is all points (x,y) with
- x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0,
- x ≤ 25,
- y ≤ 15,
- x + y ≤ 30.
So the solution region is the pentagon with vertices (0,0), (25,0), (25,5), (15,15), (0,15) — i.e. the area in the first quadrant that is left of x = 25, below y = 15, and below the line x + y = 30. Describe which labeled region matches that and I’ll pick A–D.
