![### Sensitivity Analysis and Optimization Problem
#### Problem 4
Reconsider the model from Problem 3 with the objective function:
\[
\text{Maximize } Z = c_1 x_1 + c_2 x_2
\]
where \( c_1 \geq 0, c_2 \geq 0 \). Use sensitivity analysis on the objective coefficients to answer the following questions:
(a) Find the range of \(\frac{c_1}{c_2}\) such that the optimal solution remains as \((x_1^*, x_2^*) = (3,4)\).
(b) Find the range of \(\frac{c_1}{c_2}\) such that the optimal solution remains as \((x_1^*, x_2^*) = (4,2)\).
(c) Find the range of \(\frac{c_1}{c_2}\) such that the optimal solution remains as \((x_1^*, x_2^*) = (0,5)\).
(d) If \( c_1 \) and \( c_2 \) are allowed to be negative, find the conditions on \( c_1 \) and \( c_2 \), and the range of \(\frac{c_1}{c_2}\) such that the optimal solution remains as \((x_1^*, x_2^*) = (4,0)\).
#### Question 3
Given as follows:
Consider the following problem:
\[
\text{Maximize } Z = 3x_1 + 2x_2,
\]
subject to:
- \( x_1 \leq 4 \) (resource 1)
- \( x_1 + 3x_2 \leq 15 \) (resource 2)
- \( 2x_1 + x_2 \leq 10 \) (resource 3)
- \( x_1 \geq 0, \, x_2 \geq 0, \, x_3 \geq 0 \).
The optimal solution is \((x_1^*, x_2^*) = (3,4)\) with \( Z^* = 17 \).
(a) Is any of these three constraints a binding constraint?
