Provide an appropriate response.
-Consider a linear program with an objective function for profit. Thinking of isoprofit lines, if the objective function is evaluated at the corner points of polygon $A B C D$, and $p(A)=10, p(B)=20$, and $p(C)=5$, is it safe to assume that $p(D)$ is not the corner point at which the profit is maximized?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a linear program, the maximum profit is found at the corner point with the highest objective function value. Since $p(B)=20$ is greater than $p(A)=10$ and $p(C)=5$, $p(D)$ must be less than or equal to 20 to not be the maximum.
