Expert Solution
Step 1

From the above output, there are five constraints.

PcBoard(sq.in) used

Resistors Used

Memory chips used

Assembly hours used

Fast/Hyper>2 used 

If the constraint is not binding then the shadow price of a constraint is equal to zero.

If the constraint is a binding constraint then the shadow price of a constraint is non-zero.

The non-binding constraints are :

PcBoard(sq.in) used

Resistors Used

Assembly hours used

Which has a 0 value in the shadow price.
