Consider the following linear program.
]8[0
(a) Use the graphical solution procedure to find the optimal solution.
What is the value of the objective function at the optimal solution?
at(x,y)=()
(b) Assume that the 'objective function coefficient for x changes from 8 to 6. Use the graphical solution procedure to find the new optimal solution.
Does the optimal solution change?
The extreme point ---Select--- optimal. The value of the objective function becomes solution.
Does the optimal solution change?
The extreme point ---Select--- optimal. The value of the objective function becomes
(d) The computer solution for the linear program in part (a) provides the following objective coefficient range information.
\table[[Variable,\table[[Objective],[Coefficient]],\table[[Allowable],[Increase]],\table[[Allowable],[Decrease]]],[x,8.00000,4.00000,4.00000],[Y,12.00000,12.00000,4.00000]]
How would this objective coefficient range information help you answer parts (b) and (c) prior to re-solving the problem?
The objective coefficient range for variable x is
to
. Since the change in part (b) is
---Select--- this range, we know the optimal solution
-.
Since the change in part (c) is .-.-Select-.- this range, we know the optimal solution ...Select-.. change.
(ANSWER ONLY PART C AND D)
 Consider the following linear program. ]8[0 (a) Use the graphical solution
