Question: Consider the following LP model: Maximize z = 5x1 + 12x2 + 4x3 Subject to X1 + 2x2 + x3 + x4 = 10 2x1

Consider the following LP model:

Maximize z = 5x1 + 12x2 + 4x3

Subject to

X1 + 2x2 + x3 + x4 = 10

2x1 - x2 + 3x3 = 2

X1, x2, x3, x4 ≥ 0

(a) Identify the best solution from among the following basic feasible solution:

(i) Basic variables = 2/12 mIr --

(ii) Basic variables = 

(iii) Basic variables = 2/12 mIr --

(b) Is the solution obtained in (a) optimum for the LP model?

2/12 mIr --
