Table 10-1 A company has decided to use 0-1 integer programming to help make some investment decisions. There are three possible investment alternatives from which to choose, but if it is decided that a particular alternative is to be selected, the entire cost of that alternative will be incurred (i.e., it is impossible to build one-half of a factory). The integer programming model is as follows: Maximize7000 X1 + 6000X2 + 8000X3 Subject to:X1 + X2 + X3 1(only 1 may be chosen) 30000X1 + 18000X2 + 40000X3 100,000(budget limit) 15 X1 + 18 X2 + 15 X3 50(resource limitation) all variables = 0 or 1 whereX1 = 1 if alternative 1 is selected, 0 otherwise X2 = 1 if alternative 2 is selected, 0 otherwise X3 = 1 if alternative 3 is selected, 0 otherwise The optimal solution is X1 = 0, X2 = 0, X3 = 1 In Table 10-1, which presents an integer programming problem, using the optimal solution means only one of the alternatives would be selected. How much slack is there in the third constraint? Group of answer choices 0 30 40 45
