Vertices of the feasible region are: (0,0), (4,0), (5,0), (0,4), and (0,5/3).
To find the maximum value of the objective function, substitute the coordinates of each vertex into the objective function:
c(0,0) = 6(0) - 4(0) = 0
c(4,0) = 6(4) - 4(0) = 24
c(5,0) = 6(5) - 4(0) = 30
c(0,4) = 6(0) - 4(4) = -16
c(0,5/3) = 6(0) - 4(5/3) = -20/3
Therefore, the maximum value of the objective function is 30 at the vertex (5,0).
Given the system of constraints, name all vertices of the feasible region. Then find the maximum value of the given objective function.
