Question 1(e): Graphical solution of linear programming problem
3Concept Related to the Question
A graphical LPP is solved by plotting the half-planes and checking whether the objective function has a finite maximum on the feasible region.
The feasible region lies in the first quadrant, above or on the line \(x_1+x_2=3\), and on the side \(x_1-x_2\ge1\). This region is unbounded in the positive \(x_1\)-direction.
Now take points of the form \((x_1,x_2)=(t,0)\). For every \(t\ge3\), all constraints are satisfied. At such points,
\[Z=3t+2\cdot0=3t.\]
As \(t\to\infty\), \(Z\to\infty\). Hence the objective function is not bounded above.
5Final Answer
The feasible region is unbounded and the problem has no finite maximum value.
Question 2(a)
Homomorphism between finite groups of coprime orders

Show that an isolated singular point \(z_0\) of a function \(f(z)\) is a pole of order \(m\) if and only if \(f(z)\) can be written in the form \(f(z)=\dfrac{\phi(z)}{(z-z_0)^m}\), where \(\phi(z)\) is analytic and non zero at \(z_0\). Moreover, \(\operatorname{Res}_{z=z_0}f(z)=\dfrac{\phi^{(m-1)}(z_0)}{(m-1)!}\) if \(m\ge1\).
