Consider the following problem. Maximize Z = 2x1 x2 + x3, Subject to and x1 ¥ 0,
Question:
Maximize Z = 2x1 x2 + x3,
Subject to
and
x1 ¥ 0, x2 ¥ 0, x3 ¥ 0.
If we let x4, x5, and x6 be the slack variables for the respective constraints, the simplex method yields the following final set of equations:
