Question 2 (2 marks): Consider the following

Question 2 (2 marks): Consider the following all-integer programming problem: Max x1 + x2 s.t. -7x1 + 12x2 1 X1, x2 > 0 & integer (a) Use the branch & bound method by Dakin to solve the problem by starting to branch on the variable.12. Clearly display the graph and the solution tree. (b) How many linear programming problems had to be solved to solve this all-integer problem? (c) Is this solution an interior point in the feasible set described by the constraints of the problem? (d) What is the optimal solution? (e) Consider the node in the solution tree that represents the optimal solution. What are the constraints of the problem that belongs to this node (in addition to those in the original problem)
