Question: 4 . 6 - 9 . Consider the following problem. Maximize , Z = x 1 + 4 x 2 + 2 x 3 ,

4.6-9. Consider the following problem.
Maximize ,Z=x1+4x2+2x3,
subject to
4x1+x2+2x35
-x1+x2+2x310
and
x20,x30
(no nonnegativity constraint for x1).
(a) Reformulate this problem so all variables have nonnegativity constraints.
D,I (b) Work through the simplex method step by step to solve the problem.
C (c) Use a software package based on the simplex method to solve the problem.
