Suppose we have a linear program in standard equation form
maximize cTx
subject to Ax = b.
x ≥ 0.
and suppose u, v, and w are all optimal solutions to this linear program.
(a) Prove that zu+v+w is an optimal solution.
(b) If you try to adapt your proof from part (a) to prove that that u+v+w
is an optimal solution, say exactly which part(s) of the proof go wrong.
(c) If you try to adapt your proof from part (a) to prove that u+v-w is an
optimal solution, say exactly which part(s) of the proof go wrong.
a) Suppose that we are carrying out the 1-phase simplex algorithm on a linear program in
standard inequality form (with 3 variables and 4 constraints) and suppose that we have
reached a point where we have obtained the following tableau. Apply one more pivot
operation, indicating the highlighted row and column and the row operations you carry
out. What can you conclude from your updated tableau?
