Chapter B, Problem 8DQ

Summary Introduction

To determine: The number of feasible solutions in a linear program and the ones we need to analyze to find the optimal solution.

Introduction:

Linear programming:

It is a linear optimization technique followed to develop a best outcome for the problem on hand. The outcome might be 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 solution:

A feasible solution is a set of all the possible values for the defined decision variables. The feasible solution is achieved after satisfying all the constraints.
