Explanation of Solution

Formulating a Linear Problem

  • The steps for defining a linear problem include:
    • Identifying the decision variables.
    • Writing the objective function.
    • Mentioning the constraints.
    • Explicitly stating the non-negativity restriction.
  • A problem will be a linear problem if and only if the decision variables, objective function and constraints all are linear functions.
  • If all the three conditions are satisfied, then it is a linear problem.
  • Let RREF be the liters of regular produced, PREM be the liters of premium produced, RREF be the liters of reformate used in regular and PREF be the liters of reformate used in premium.
  • LINDO is a software package for linear programming and it helps to get a good feasible solution quickly.
  • Hence in this case, the linear problem in LINDO form  is
