Question: Consider the following problem: Maximize: Z = 3 * * x 1 + 5 * * x 2 + 2 * * x 3 ;

Consider the following problem:
Maximize: Z=3**x1+5**x2+2**x3;
Subject to:
-2**1+2**2+x35
3**1+x2-x310
x10,x20 and x30.
Use x4 and x5 as the slack variables for the constraints 1 and 2 respectively. Answer the following:
(i) Can x13 form the optimal basis? Validate using the revised simplex method.
(ii) Can 23 form a feasible basis? Explain and show your work.
(iii) Use the optimal tableau and carry out a sensitivity analysis with respect to the non-basic variable x2.
(iv) Use the optimal tableau and perform a sensitivity study on the level of the first resource(first constraint). Report the range of value for the first resource that will keep the current [x1x3] optimal.
