Name the algorithm that solves linear programming problems of all sizes?
Asks which is NOT a requirement of linear programming.
In linear programming, what limits the degree to which a manager can pursue an objective?
In a product-mix problem with linear programming, the objective is
Solve for X1, X2, X3, the optimal solution, the contribution (objective value). Then find hours of unused machine time, what an additional hour of time is worth.
Your numbers will vary.
This works for both minimum and maximum problems with 2 subject-to-constraints (plus the X, Y > 0). They give an objective function Z = #X + #Y and are subject to 2 equations. They ask you to draw two lines and for the optimum solution, X =, Y =, and the optimal solution value Z.
Your numbers will vary.
From a large grid of numbers reflecting distance to school and number of students, many equations are asked to be made.
(Note: this solver ONLY provides check answers for the first 14 of the 15 parts and does not solve the final 15th part)
