Question: In the context of linear programming problem, duality implies that each linear programming problem can be analyzed using two different ways which have equivalent solutions.

In the context of linear programming problem, duality implies that each linear
programming problem can be analyzed using two different ways which have
equivalent solutions.
If the primal contains n variables and m constraints; the dual will contain m
variables and n constraints.
The maximization problem in the primal becomes the maximization problem
in the dual and vice versa.
The coefficient matrix of the constraints of the dual is the transpose of the
primal.
The methods of solving the dual linear programming are not similar with that
of the original linear programming problems.
Sensitivity analysis is concerned with the study of 'sensitivity' of the optimal
solution of LP problem with changes in parameters.
In transportation problem, the sum of allocations along each row equals the
supply of each row and the sum of the allocations down each column equals the
demand or requirement of each column.
In general, transportation model is used for cost maximization problems.
The assignment problem has many applications in allocations and scheduling.
