By adding first 2 inequalities, we get, $3x_1 + 3x_2 \leq 9$. It can also be written as: $x_1+z \leq 9$. So, $z \leq 9\; – \;x_1$ Since, $x_1 \geq 0$, So, $z\leq 9$. So, from given options, we can eliminate first 3 options. 2 votes 2 votes Sanjay Sharma commented Nov 21, 2020 reply Follow Share smart way to answer as per given options 0 votes 0 votes shashikalaraju commented May 5, 2021 reply Follow Share yes.
