(2) Name the coordinates of the vertices of the feasible region. (3) Find the maximum and minimum values of the given function for this region.

Introduction to Linear Programming:

When solving problems with inequalities, the boundary lines are the for the situation or conditions given to the variables.

The intersection of the graphs of the system of inequalities is the .

When the graph of constraints creates a polygon, the region is (although, it is possible that a system of inequalities forms an region, where part of it is open).

The maximum or minimum value of a related function always occurs at one of the of the feasible region.

Linear Programming Applications: (1) Yum’s Bakery bakes two types of breads, A and B. One batch of bread A uses 5 pounds

of oats and 3 pounds of flour. One batch of bread B uses 2 pounds of oats and 3 pounds of flour. The company currently has 180 pounds of oats and 135 pounds of flour available. One batch of bread A yields $40 of profit, and one batch of bread B yields $30 of profit. If Yum’s Bakery wants to maximize its profits, how many batches of each type of bread should they bake?
