Answer:
The greatest possible value of 3x - 2y is 20
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 2y ------- 1
For getting the greatest possible value we must get the greatest value available, which is 10 and put it in place of x .
As 2y is being subtracted in the eq 1, we must put the smallest value available in the eq 1 to get the greatest possible result.
put x = 10 and y = 5 in eq 1
3(10) - 2(5)
= 30 - 10
= 20
Smallest possible value from the eqaution will be obtained by putting y = 10 and x = 5
3 (5) - 2 (10)
= 15 - 20
= -5
