1 The constraints of a linear programming problem are represented by the graph below. The feasible region is the unshaded region, including its boundaries.

- Write down the inequalities that define the feasible region.
The objective is to maximise \(P _ { m } = x + m y\), where \(m\) is a positive, real-valued constant.
- In the case when \(m = 2\), calculate the values of \(x\) and \(y\) at the optimal point, and the corresponding value of \(P _ { 2 }\).
- (a) Write down the values of \(m\) for which point \(A\) is optimal.
(b) Write down the values of \(m\) for which point \(B\) is optimal.
