Question: Solve the following LPs using the two - phase simplex method. maximize 6 x 1 + x 2 subject to x 1 + 3 x

Solve the following LPs using the two-phase simplex method.
maximize 6x1+ x2
subject to x1+3x26
x13x2=6
x1+ x21
x1, x20
Part I (10 points): formulate the auxiliary (phase-I) LP.(introduce the slack and auxiliary variables for
each of the constraints)
Part II (5 points): determine the initial basic and non-basic variables for the phase-I LP.
Part III (5 points): solve the phase-I LP using simplex method.
Part IV (5 points): starting from the optimal basic and non-basic variables for phase-I LP, remove the
auxiliary variables, and use the rest basic and non-basic variables to start simplex for the original LP
