Minimize c=x+2yc=x+2y subject to x+5y19,4x+y19,x0,y0x+5y \geq 19, 4x+y \geq 19, x \geq 0, y \geq 0, where c=(x,y)=(x)c = (x,y)=(\sqrt{x}).

STEP 1

Assumptions
1. The objective function to minimize is c=x+2y c = x + 2y .
2. The constraints are given by the inequalities: x+5y19 x + 5y \geq 19 , 4x+y19 4x + y \geq 19 , x0 x \geq 0 , y0 y \geq 0 .
3. The problem is a linear programming problem.

STEP 2

Draw the feasible region defined by the constraints on a coordinate plane.
- The first constraint x+5y19 x + 5y \geq 19 represents a line when x+5y=19 x + 5y = 19 . We can find two points on this line by setting x=0 x = 0 and y=0 y = 0 and solving for the other variable. - The second constraint 4x+y19 4x + y \geq 19 represents another line when 4x+y=19 4x + y = 19 . We can find two points on this line in the same manner.

STEP 3

Find the point on the line x+5y=19 x + 5y = 19 when x=0 x = 0 .
y=195 y = \frac{19}{5}

STEP 4

Find the point on the line x+5y=19 x + 5y = 19 when y=0 y = 0 .
x=19 x = 19

STEP 5

Find the point on the line 4x+y=19 4x + y = 19 when x=0 x = 0 .
y=19 y = 19

STEP 6

Find the point on the line 4x+y=19 4x + y = 19 when y=0 y = 0 .
x=194 x = \frac{19}{4}

STEP 7

Plot the lines and the feasible region on a coordinate plane. The feasible region is the area that satisfies all inequalities, including x0 x \geq 0 and y0 y \geq 0 .

STEP 8

Identify the corner points of the feasible region. These are the points where the constraint lines intersect each other and the axes.

STEP 9

Find the intersection point of the lines x+5y=19 x + 5y = 19 and 4x+y=19 4x + y = 19 by solving the system of equations.

STEP 10

Set up the system of equations:
x+5y=194x+y=19 \begin{align*} x + 5y &= 19 \\ 4x + y &= 19 \end{align*}

STEP 11

Multiply the second equation by 5 to eliminate y y :
x+5y=1920x+5y=95 \begin{align*} x + 5y &= 19 \\ 20x + 5y &= 95 \end{align*}

STEP 12

Subtract the first equation from the second equation to solve for x x :
(20x+5y)(x+5y)=951919x=76x=4 \begin{align*} (20x + 5y) - (x + 5y) &= 95 - 19 \\ 19x &= 76 \\ x &= 4 \end{align*}

STEP 13

Substitute x=4 x = 4 into the first equation to solve for y y :
4+5y=195y=15y=3 \begin{align*} 4 + 5y &= 19 \\ 5y &= 15 \\ y &= 3 \end{align*}

STEP 14

The intersection point of the two lines is (4,3) (4, 3) .

STEP 15

Evaluate the objective function c=x+2y c = x + 2y at each corner point of the feasible region, including (4,3) (4, 3) , (19,0) (19, 0) , (0,195) (0, \frac{19}{5}) , and (0,19) (0, 19) .

STEP 16

Calculate c c at (4,3) (4, 3) :
c=4+2(3)=4+6=10 c = 4 + 2(3) = 4 + 6 = 10

STEP 17

Calculate c c at (19,0) (19, 0) :
c=19+2(0)=19 c = 19 + 2(0) = 19

STEP 18

Calculate c c at (0,195) (0, \frac{19}{5}) :
c=0+2(195)=385=7.6 c = 0 + 2\left(\frac{19}{5}\right) = \frac{38}{5} = 7.6

STEP 19

Calculate c c at (0,19) (0, 19) :
c=0+2(19)=38 c = 0 + 2(19) = 38

STEP 20

The minimum value of c c is the smallest value obtained from the corner points.

STEP 21

Compare the values of c c to find the minimum:
- At (4,3) (4, 3) , c=10 c = 10 - At (19,0) (19, 0) , c=19 c = 19 - At (0,195) (0, \frac{19}{5}) , c=7.6 c = 7.6 - At (0,19) (0, 19) , c=38 c = 38

STEP 22

The minimum value of c c is 7.6 7.6 at the point (0,195) (0, \frac{19}{5}) .
The solution to the problem is that the minimum value of the objective function c c is 7.6 7.6 , and it occurs when x=0 x = 0 and y=195 y = \frac{19}{5} .
