Chapter 4.14, Problem 6P

Explanation of Solution

Proof:

In certain linear programming, some variables are allowed to be unrestricted in sign as required for the appropriate formulation of the problem,

In such cases, the simplex algorithm will no longer be valid even though the formulation is appropriate. The reason for the above is that to apply the simplex algorithm, all the variables are required to be non-negative.

Therefore, such unrestricted in sign variable xi is defined in terms of two variables, xi' and xi'' as given below,

xi=xi'xi''

The sign restriction for each of the variable holds as:

xi'0 and xi''0

The xi is expressed as the difference of two non-negative variables. So, now the simplex method can be applied.

It is already known that the simplex method generates number of pivots before arriving at an optimal solution. At the end of the solution, the user will either of xi>0,xi<0 and xi=0

The xi must follow any one of the three cases for any of the basic solution in any of the pivot. The three cases are given below,

Case 1: When xi>0

As stated above, xi=xi'xi''. So, the this case is possible if xi'>0 and xi''>0. That is,

xi=xi'xi''=xi'

Case 2: When xi<0

As stated above, xi=xi'xi''. So, the this case is possible if xi'=0 and xi''>0

I need to render an image of a car continuously for a smooth visual experience in C# WinForms. It gets the location array (that has all the x,y of the tiles it should visit) from another function - assume it is already written.
write c program with features: Register a Bunny: Store the bunny's name, poem, and initialize the egg count to 0. Modify an Entry: Change the bunny's poem or update the egg count. Delete a Bunny: Remove a registered bunny from the list. List All Bunnies: Display all registered bunnies and their details. Save & Load Data: Store bunny data in a file to persist between runs. Use a struct to represent a bunny contestant. Store data in a binary file (bunnies.dat) for persistence. Use file I/O functions (fopen, fwrite, fread, etc.) to manage data. Implement a menu-driven interface for user interaction.
Help, how do I write the pseudocode for the findMean function and flowchart for this?
