Summary Introduction

To explain: A linear programming that has feasible region with infinite number of solutions.

Introduction:

Linear programming:

It is a linear optimization technique followed to develop a best outcome for the problem in hand. The outcome might be of maximum profit or less cost which are represented by a linear relationship. The outcome will take into consideration the constraints present in achieving the solution.

Feasible region:

A feasible region is a solution space which contains all the possible points of an optimization problem. The region will be formed after satisfying the constraints in the problem which includes inequalities, integer constraints and inequalities. It is the area that is bounded by the constraints of the problem.
