NUST NET Mathematics — Linear Inequalities and Linear Programming
Linear Inequalities and Linear Programming is part of the FSc Mathematics course that NUST NET-Engineering draws on (Mathematics is 100 of the 200 MCQs). It breaks into 1 subtopic, and we hold 42 NET-pattern practice MCQs on it, each with a written explanation. Tap a subtopic below to practise just that.

Linear Inequalities and Linear Programming MCQs from the NET-pattern papers
Try each one before opening the answer. Each comes with a short explanation.
- Q1 · NUST NET Past Paper 07 · Linear Inequalities and Linear Programming
In linear programming, the set of all points that satisfy every constraint is called the:
- A.objective function
- B.feasible region
- C.optimal solution
- D.decision variable
Show answer
Answer: B. feasible region — The points satisfying all the constraints form the feasible region.
- Q2 · NUST NET Past Paper 08 · Linear Inequalities and Linear Programming
In a linear programming problem, the function that is to be maximised or minimised is called the:
- A.constraint
- B.feasible region
- C.objective function
- D.corner point
Show answer
Answer: C. objective function — The function to optimise is the objective function.
- Q3 · NUST NET Past Paper 05 · Linear Inequalities and Linear Programming
The graph of the inequality x ≥ 0 in the xy-plane is the region:
- A.below the x-axis
- B.to the left of the y-axis
- C.above the line y = x
- D.on and to the right of the y-axis
Show answer
Answer: D. on and to the right of the y-axis — x ≥ 0 is the y-axis together with the half-plane to its right.
