Let the points $\left(\frac{11}{2}, \alpha\right)$ lie on or inside the triangle with sides $x + y =11, x +2 y =16$ and $2 x +3 y =29$. Then the product of the smallest and the largest values of $\alpha$ is equal to :

A$22$
B$44$
C$33$
D$55$

Solution

Point of intersection of $x=\frac{11}{2}$ with $L_1 \& L_3$ gives, $\alpha_{\min }=\frac{11}{2}$
and $\alpha_{\max }=6$
$\therefore \alpha_{\min } \cdot \alpha_{\max }=\frac{11}{2} \times 6=33$
