The correct answer is: \( (2,0) \)
Given that $x+y \leq 2 \rightarrow(1)$
$x \geq 0 . y \geq 0 \rightarrow(2)$
Corner points are $(0,0),(2,0),(0,2)$
Maximum of $3 x+2 y$ is at $(2,0)$

$$
\begin{array}{l}
\text { Given that } x+y \leq 2 \rightarrow(1) \\
x \geq 0 . y \geq 0 \rightarrow(2) \\
\text { Corner points are }(0,0),(2,0),(0,2) \\
\text { Maximum of } 3 x+2 y \text { is at }(2,0)
\end{array}
