Question: Problem 2 ( Duality ) ( pts . ) Consider the following linear program: max z = 2 x 1 + 5 x 2 subject

Problem 2(Duality)( pts.)
Consider the following linear program:
max z =2x1+5x2
subject to x1+3x2<=6
2x1+4x2<=9
x1, x2>=0.
1. Write the dual of the above linear program.
2. Match the complementary basic solution pairs.
(P) basic solutions (D) basic solutions
(0,0)(1,0.5)
(0,2)(0,1.25)
(1,2)(0,0)
(1.5,1.5)(1,2/3)
3. From the complementary pairs, identify one pair where weak duality holds.
4. Identify the optimal primal and dual solutions.
