Question

Use the simplex method and the Duality Principle to solve the following minimum problem:

**Linear Programming Problem**

**Objective:**
Minimize the cost function:
\[ C = 6x_1 + 3x_2 \]

**Constraints:**
1. \( 4x_1 + x_2 \geq 4 \)
2. \( x_2 \geq 2 \)
3. \( x_1 \geq 0 \)
4. \( x_2 \geq 0 \)

These constraints define the feasible region for the variables \( x_1 \) and \( x_2 \), ensuring they are within allowable limits or conditions. The goal is to find values of \( x_1 \) and \( x_2 \) that minimize the cost function while satisfying all given constraints.
