Explanation of Solution

Optimal solution:

  • Consider the following linear programing problem:
    • min z= 5x1-x2
  • Subject to the constraints:
    • x1-3x2 ≤ 1
    • x1-4x2 ≤ 3
    • x1, x2  ≥ 0
  • Consider s1 and s2 are the two slack variables.
  • Add each of the slack variable to each constraint when it is less than or equal to type.
  • Here, the given two constraints are less than or equal to type, then we add these two slack variables to make it as standard form and at the same time add these variables to the objective function with 0 quantity weight.
  • Therefore, the standard form of the LP is as follows:
  • Max z= 5x1-x2-0×s1-0×s2
  • Subject to the constraints:
    • x1-3x2+s1 = 1
    • x1-4x

Methods (Ch6) - Review 1. (The MyRoot method) Below is a manual implementation of the Math.sqrt() method in Java. There are two methods, method #1 which calculates the square root for positive integers, and method #2, which calculates the square root of positive doubles (also works for integers). public class SquareRoot { public static void main(String[] args) { } // implement a loop of your choice here // Method that calculates the square root of integer variables public static double myRoot(int number) { double root; root=number/2; double root old; do { root old root; root (root_old+number/root_old)/2; } while (Math.abs(root_old-root)>1.8E-6); return root; } // Method that calculates the square root of double variables public static double myRoot(double number) { double root; root number/2; double root_old; do { root old root; root (root_old+number/root_old)/2; while (Math.abs (root_old-root)>1.0E-6); return root; } } Program-it-Yourself: In the main method, create a program that…
