The linear programming problem has an unusual characteristic. Select a graph of the solution region for the problem and describe the unusual characteristic. Find the maximum value of the objective function (if possible) and where it occurs.
?
Objective function:
?
z = x + y
?
Constraints:
?
          x ? 0
          y ? 0
   -x + y ? 1
 -x + 5y ? 7
?

A.

Maximum at (0.5, 1.5): 2


B.

The region determined by the constraints is unbounded. For this unbounded region, there is no maximum value of z.


C.

Maximum at (0, 1): 1


D.

Maximum at (0, 0): 0


E.
