We want to put our objective function in cell D3. What should we type in D3?

In cell D5 to D8, we will put the left hand side of our constraint. What should we type in D8?

In OpenSolver, what should we assign to Variable Cell?

What should you do to input the non-negativity constraint in OpenSolver?
