Explanation The given data is: Types of houses Maximum limit Colonial style house Split-level house Ranch style house Land requirement(acre) 0.5 0.5 1 30 Capital 60000 60000 80000 3,200,000 Labor hour 4000 3000 4000 180,000 Profit 20000 18000 24000 The contractor must decide on the number of houses of each type that should be constructed. So, the decision variables are; x 1 = Number of Colonial style house x 2 = Number of Split − level house x 3 = Number of Ranch style house The contractor's objective is to maximize profit: P = 20000 x 1 + 18000 x 2 + 24000 x 3 The contractor is limited by the land, capital and labor hour available for construction. These limitations lead to the following constraints: 0.5 x 1 + 0.5 x 2 + x 3 ≤ 30 land constraint 60000 x 1 + 60000 x 2 + 80000 x 3 ≤ 3,200,000 capital constraint 4000 x 1 + 3000 x 2 + 4000x 3 ≤ 180,000 labor hour constraint Adding the non-negative constraints, the model for the linear programming problem is: Maximize P = 20000 x 1 + 18000 x 2 + 24000 x 3 subject to 0.5 x 1 + 0.5 x 2 + x 3 ≤ 30 land constraint 60000 x 1 + 60000 x 2 + 80000 x 3 ≤ 3,200,000 capital constraint 4000 x 1 + 3000 x 2 + 4000 x 3 ≤ 180 , 000 labor hour constraint x 1 , x 2 , x 3 ≥ 0 To convert the problem constraints into a system of equations slack variables is used. Since there are m = 3 problem constraints, so it needs three slack variables s 1 , s 2 , s 3 to convert the inequality into equality. 0.5 x 1 + 0.5 x 2 + x 3 + s 1 ≤ 30 6000 x 1 + 6000 x 2 + 8000 x 3 +s 2 ≤ 3,200,000 4000 x 1 + 3000 x 2 + 4000 x 3 +s 3 ≤ 180 , 000 − 20000 x 1 − 18000 x 2 − 24000 x 3 + P = 0 Form the simplex tableau: x 1 x 2 x 3 s 1 s 2 s 3 P s 1 s 2 s 3 P [ 0.5 0.5 1 1 0 0 0 30 6000 6000 8000 0 1 0 0 3 , 200 , 000 4000 3000 4000 0 0 1 0 180000 − 20000 − 18000 − 24000 0 0 0 1 0 ] A variable can be selected as a basic variable only if it corresponds to a column in the tableau that has exactly one nonzero element (usually 1) and the nonzero element in the column is not in the same row as the nonzero element in the column of another basic variable. So, the basic variables are s 1 , s 2 , s 3 , P . And non-basic variables are x 1 , x 2 , x 3 . To select the pivot column, select the most negative number in the bottom row of the tableau and to the left of the P column. The column containing this element is the pivot column . If there is a tie for the most negative indicator, choose either column. Hence, the third column is the pivot column. To select the pivot row, check for the smallest quotient for each row above the dashed line. If there is a tie for the smallest quotient, choose either row. 30 1 = 30 3200000 80000 = 40 180000 4000 = 45 So, the first row is selected as the pivot row. The element at the intersection of the pivot column and the pivot row is called the pivot element. x 1 x 2 x 3 s 1 s 2 s 3 P s 1 s 2 s 3 P [ 0.5 0.5 1 1 0 0 0 30 6000 6000 8000 0 1 0 0 3 , 200 , 000 4000 3000 4000 0 0 1 0 180000 − 20000 − 18000 − 24000 0 0 0 1 0 ] So, the element enclosed in rectangle 1 is the pivot element. The variable on the top of the pivot column is called as the entering variable. the variable to the left of the pivot row is the exiting variable. So, x 3 is the entering variable and s 1 is the exiting variable. x 1 x 2 x 3 s 1 s 2 s 3 P s 1 s 2 s 3 P [ 0.5 0.5 1 1 0 0 0 30 6000 6000 8000 0 1 0 0 3 , 200 , 000 4000 3000 4000 0 0 1 0 180000 − 20000 − 18000 − 24000 0 0 0 1 0 ] R 2 − 8000 R 1 → R 2 R 3 − 4000 R 1 → R 3 R 4 + 24000 R 1 → R 4 ~ x 3 s 2 s 3 P [ 0
