Solve this linear programming problem using the simplex method. Maximize P = 4x + 20y
subject to these constraints:
4x + 70y 1400
2x + 20y 430
4x + 30y 700
8x + 30y 980
10x + 20y 1150
x 0, y 0
Maximum value for P = This value of P occurs when x = and y = If u1, u2, u3, u4 and u5 represent the slack variables in the five constraints (u1 the slack variable in the top constraint listed above, u2 for the second, etc.), then give the values for each of the four slack variables when the optimal solution is reached:
u1 = u2 = u3 = u4 = u5 =
