number 2 is an optimal solution :)

The first system of inequalities x≤1 , y ≥0 , 3x+y≤5 can be represented in the form of a linear programming problem.

To visualize this, we can plot the inequalities on a graph.

The inequality x≤1 represents a vertical line at x=1. Since x is bounded by this inequality, it means that the feasible region will be on or to the left of this line.

The inequality y≥0 represents a horizontal line along the x-axis. Since y is bounded by this inequality, it means that the feasible region will be on or above this line.

The inequality 3x+y≤5 can be rewritten as y≤-3x+5. This represents a line with a negative slope that intersects the y-axis at 5. Since y is bounded by this inequality, it means that the feasible region will be below or on this line.

When we combine these three inequalities, we find the feasible region to be the triangle formed by the region on or to the left of x=1, the region on or above the x-axis, and the region below or on the line y=-3x+5.

Now, let's analyze the linear programming situation based on the given options:

1. Infeasible: The feasible region does exist, so this option is incorrect.

2. Unbounded: The feasible region is bounded by the given inequalities. Therefore, this option is incorrect.

3. Optimal solution: An optimal solution exists when the objective function (in this case f(x, y) = x + y) is maximized or minimized within the feasible region. To find the optimal solution, we need additional information about the objective function or any other constraints. Therefore, the existence of an optimal solution cannot be determined based on the given inequalities.

4. Alternate optimal solutions: Similar to the previous option, determining the existence of alternate optimal solutions requires more information about the objective function and additional constraints.

In conclusion, based on the given inequalities, we cannot determine whether there is an optimal solution or alternate optimal solutions.

For the second system of inequalities x≥0 , y ≥0 , 6x+3y≤18 , x+3y≤9, let's analyze the linear programming situation again:

1. Infeasible: The feasible region exists as x and y are both non-negative. Therefore, this option is incorrect.

2. Unbounded: The feasible region is bounded by the given inequalities, so this option is incorrect.

3. Optimal solution: To find the maximum value of f(x, y) = x + y, we need to find the point within the feasible region where the objective function is maximized. In this case, the objective function represents a straight line with positive slope. By plotting the feasible region, we can determine the vertex (corner) of the feasible region at which the objective function is maximized.

4. Alternate optimal solutions: If there are multiple vertices of the feasible region where the objective function is maximized, then there would be alternate optimal solutions.

In conclusion, based on the given inequalities, there is a single optimal solution for maximizing the value of f(x, y) = x + y within the feasible region.
