For the feasible set in the figure to the right, determine \( x \) and \( y \) so that the objective function \( 5x + 6y \) is maximized.

![Graph Illustration]

### Graph Explanation

In the graph, we have a triangle representing the feasible set. The triangle has the following vertices: 
- \( (0, 0) \) 
- \( (0, 15) \) 
- \( (15, 0) \)

### Axes Description
- The \( x \)-axis is labeled \( x \).
- The vertical axis is labeled \( y \).

### Feasible Set
- The feasible set is the area enclosed by the triangle with coordinates \( (0, 0) \), \( (0, 15) \), and \( (15, 0) \).
- This region is highlighted and labeled "feasible set."

### Objective Function
The objective function given is \( 5x + 6y \).

### Goal
Determine the values of \( x \) and \( y \) within the feasible set that maximize the objective function.

### Solution Input
- \( x = \)
- \( y = \)
