Optimum Value
The optimum value is the largest or smallest value of the objective function that can be reached within the feasible region. It is found by testing the corner points of the region, since the maximum or minimum of a linear function always occurs at a vertex.
This gives the best solution.

Where it appears in Add Math
You meet Optimum Value in the Linear Programming chapter of SPM Additional Mathematics. Knowing the term precisely matters in the exam: questions often hinge on reading a keyword correctly, and because SPM marking is analytic, using the right definition in your working helps secure method marks.
Our teachers make sure a student can not only recite what Optimum Value means but use it fluently in a full solution.
The term in three languages
Because the SPM Add Math paper is bilingual (BM/EN), it helps to know this term in each language: Optimum Value (EN) · Nilai Optimum (BM) · 最优值 (中文)
