Question: Consider the following linear program: Min z = 8 x 1 , 1 + 6 x 1 , 2 + 7 x 2 , 1

Consider the following linear program:
Min z =8 x1,1+6 x1,2+7 x2,1+11 x2,2+13 x3,1+8x3,2
s.t. x1,1+ x1,2<=300
x2,1+ x2,2<=400
x3,1+ x3,2<=500
x1,1+x2,1+x3,1>=225
x1,2+x2,2+x3,2>=315
xi,j >=0
(a)(17.5 points) Solve this problem using the greedy method.
(b)(4 points) Suppose that the objective coefficient on x1 changes from 8 to 10, does this
change the optimal solution?
(c)(3.5 points If the demand of the second warehouse changes from 315 to 400, how does
the optimal objective value change? Explain
