Question: For each part, either prove that the statement is correct or find a counterexample. The primal problem is denoted by P , and the dual
For each part, either prove that the statement is correct or find a counterexample. The primal
problem is denoted by and the dual of it is denoted by Note that here the word prove does
not mean rigorous mathematical proofs.
i If is infeasible, then must be unbounded.
ii If has an optimal solution, then both and must be feasible.
iii If does not have an optimal solution, it is either infeasible or unbounded.
iv If does not have an optimal solution, is either infeasible or unbounded.
v The optimal solution of must be smaller than the objective value of any feasible solution
of
vi Both and can be unbounded.
vii You will use BigM method to find an initial solution to After some simplex iterations, you
realize that the problem with artificial variables added is unbounded. Given this information,
only the following cases are possible:
a is infeasible and is unbounded.
b is infeasible and is infeasible.
c is unbounded and is infeasible
