Objective Function : Max Z = 3x1 +2x2

Sensitivity Ranges :

  • C1 (3)
    • Upper limit 3 +∞ = ∞
    • Lower limit 3-2 = 1
  • C2 (2)
    • Upper limit 4+2 = 6
    • Lower limit 2-3.5 = -1.5

 

  1. What are the constraint quantity values?
  2. Identify the sensitivity ranges for the constraint quantity
  3. Are there any unused resources? If so, which ones and what are the amount of unused resources?
