Question

In a linear programming problem, the binding constraints for the optimal solution are:

 

2x1 + 25x2 ≤ 74

14x1 + 48x2 ≤ 108

 

What value from the 2nd constraint can the slope of the objective function not exceed in order for the current optimal solution point to remain optimal? Round your solution to 2 decimal places.

 

thats all the data provided^

Expert Solution
Step 1: We write what we have to find out

The value from the second constraint that the slope of the objective function cannot exceed, we need to calculate the shadow price associated with the second constraint
