Answer the following questions considering the sensitivity analysis report given below:

Answer the following questions considering the

  1. What is the optimal solution? (2 marks)
  2. What is the optimal objective function value? (3 marks)
  3. What is the allowable range for the objective function coefficient of Variable 1? (3 marks)
  4. What is the allowable range for the Right-hand side value of Constraint 1? (3 marks)
  5. Does the optimal solution change if we change the objective function coefficient of Variable 2 to 800? Why? (3 marks)
  6. Based on the available information, can we find out if the optimal solution changes when we change the objective function coefficients of Variable 2 and Variable 3 to 650 and 600 respectively? Why? (4 marks)
  7. Based on the available information, can we determine the optimal objective function value after the RHS of Constraint 3 changes to 10? Why? If yes, what is the optimal objective function value after this change? (3 marks)
  8. Based on the available information, can we determine the optimal objective function value when we change the RHS of Constraint 1 and Constraint 2 to 4800 and 900 respectively? Why? If yes, what is the optimal objective function value after this change? (4 marks)

Please elaborate if you're missing anything. Thanks
