Constraint System Math Example 4

Follow the full solution, then compare it with the other examples linked below.

Example 4

medium
Is (3,4)(3, 4) in the feasible region of x+yโ‰ค8x + y \leq 8 and xโ‰ฅ2x \geq 2?

Solution

  1. 1
    Check x+yโ‰ค8x + y \leq 8: 3+4=7โ‰ค83 + 4 = 7 \leq 8 โœ“
  2. 2
    Check xโ‰ฅ2x \geq 2: 3โ‰ฅ23 \geq 2 โœ“. Both constraints are satisfied.

Answer

Yes, (3,4)(3, 4) is feasible.
A point is in the feasible region if it satisfies every constraint in the system simultaneously.
