As we learnt in

Corner Point Method -

This method of solving a LPP graphically is based on the principle of extreme points theorem.

4x_{1}+3x_{2}\leq 18

x_{1}-x_{2}\leq 3

From figure only (2, 1) lies in region. 


Option 1)

x_{1},x_{2}=\left ( 1,5 \right )

Incorrect

Option 2)

x_{1},x_{2}=\left ( 4,1 \right )

Incorrect

Option 3)

x_{1},x_{2}=\left ( 4,0 \right )

Incorrect

Option 4)

x_{1},x_{2}=\left ( 2,1 \right )
