Transcribed Image Text:### Linear Programming Problem
**Objective:**
Minimize \( z = 3x + y \)
**Subject to:**
1. \( 3y + 5x \geq 30 \)
2. \( 6y + 4x \geq 40 \)
3. \( y + x \geq 8 \)
4. \( x \geq 0 \)
5. \( y \geq 0 \)
---
**Instructions:**
Solve this using the graphical method. Be sure to clearly show all steps:
1. **Sketch the feasible region**
Plot the given inequalities on the coordinate plane to determine the feasible region.
2. **Determine the corner points**
Identify the intersection points (corner points) of the constraints within the feasible region.
3. **Determine the minimum of the objective function**
Evaluate the objective function \( z = 3x + y \) at each corner point to find the minimum value.
---
**Task:**
- Sketch the feasible region
- Determine the corner points
- Determine the minimum of the objective function
