Chapter 6.5, Problem 5P

Explanation of Solution

Duals of LP:

  • Consider the linear programming problem given below:
  • max z= x1+2x2
  • Subject to constraints:
    • 3x1+x26
    • 2x1+x2=5
    • x1,x20

a.

  • To find the dual of the above LP proceed as follows:
  • Step 1:
Max z
min w(x10)(x20)  
 x1x2  
(y10)y1316
 y221=5*
 12  
  • Step 2:
    • In this case, the second primal constraint is equality and therefore dual variable y2 is now unrestricted in sign(urs).
    • The asterisk (*) sign represents the places where rules must be applied to determine part of the dual

Explanation of Solution

b.

  • As the above linear programming problem is not a normal max problem, therefore the following steps are to be performed to convert it into a normal form.
  • Step 1: Multiply each constraint by -1 as mentioned below:
    • There is no constraint in this LP.
  • Step 2:
    • Replace the equality constraint 2x1+x2=5 by two inequality constraints as,
      • 2x1+x25
      • 2x1x25
  • Step 3:
    • Now replace each urs variable xi by xi=xi'xi'' as there is no urs variable in the given LP.
  • Now write the transformed LP as,
  • max z= x1+2x2
  • Subject to constraints:
    • 3x1+x26
    • 2x1+x25
    • 2x1x25
    • x1,x20
  • Construct the following table according to the given LP,
Min W(x10)(x20)  
 x1

Explanation of Solution

c.

  • Now put y2=y2'y2'' in the part (b) answer. So that,
  • min w= 6y1+5y2
  • Subject to constraints
    • 3y1+2y21
    • y1+y22
    • y10,y2 urs
  • Since,
  • y2

Dijkstra's Algorithm (part 1).  Consider the network shown below, and Dijkstra’s link-state algorithm. Here, we are interested in computing the least cost path from node E (note: the start node here is E) to all other nodes using Dijkstra's algorithm. Using the algorithm statement used in the textbook and its visual representation, complete the "Step 0" row in the table below showing the link state algorithm’s execution by matching the table entries (i), (ii), (iii), and (iv) with their values.  Write down your final [correct] answer, as you‘ll need it for the next question.
