Question: 1 . What is the current optimal solution and the objective function value? 2 . What is the objective function coefficient of decision variable 1

1. What is the current optimal solution and the objective function value?
2. What is the objective function coefficient of decision variable 1(operation days of mill 1)?
3. What is the sensitivity range for the objective function coefficient of decision variable 1(operation days of mill 1)?
4. If the operation cost of mill 1 increases from $6000 to $7500, will the optimal solution change? And why?
5. What is the objective function coefficient of decision variable 2(operation days of mill 2)?
6. If the operation cost of mill 2 decreases from $7000 to $6500, will the optimal solution change?
7. Which constrains are binding?
