Linear programming is a powerful tool used for constrained optimization situations. These problems involve restrictions like budgets, materials, labor, and machine time. Components of LP problems include an objective function, decision variables, constraints, and parameters. There are numerous examples of linear programming applications, including:

Applications in Engineering

Transportation Optimization

Efficient Manufacturing

Food and Agriculture

Energy industry

For this week, please provide an example for one of these applications and mention these components in your example. You do not need to provide a mathematical model or optimal solution for your example.
