How to solve linear programming problem?

I have a linear programming problem to solve. It looks like:
zx = max z
s.t. z ≤ c*y1 + y1*x
z ≤ c*y2 + y2*x
Σ x ≤ 5
Where:
c = 0

y1 = 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0
y2 = 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.
x is an array of 16 numbers.
The result should be optimized for x.
How do I solve it using Matlab?

I want to find y. There are not y in maximum function. So I can't use linprog.

No, you said in your original post that the y variables were known and that you wanted to find x,
"The result should be optimized for x."
linprog is definitely the tool to use. Your problem is very much a linear program and that is the kind of problem that linprog solves. Although, be mindful that z must be solved for as well and therefore z and x must be viewed as part of a single vector of 17 unknowns p=[-z,x]
It worked! Thank you so much.
