Question

Consider the following optimization problem
Minimize
z = x1 + 3x2
subject to
3x1 − 2x2 ≤ b1
x1 + 3x2 = 2
x1, x2 ≥ 0
(a) Solve the linear program graphically for b1 = 2.
(b) By adjusting b1, determine graphically the range of b1 for which the solution
stays optimal.
(c) What is the range of the objective value for the range of b1 in Part(b)?
(d) Deduce the relationship between the change in b1 to the change in objective
value?
(e) By adjusting b1, determine graphically the range of b1 for which the solution
stays feasible.
