Question: The following tableau represents a specific simplex iteration for a maximization problem. All variables are nonnegative. table [ [ Basic , x 1 ,

The following tableau represents a specific simplex iteration for a maximization problem. All variables are nonnegative.
\table[[Basic,x1,x2,x3,x4,x5,x6,x7,x8,Solution],[f,0,-5,0,4,-1,10,0,0,620],[x8,0,3,0,-2,-3,-1,5,1,12],[x3,0,1,1,3,1,0,3,0,6],[x1,1,-1,0,0,6,-4,0,0,0]]
Use the table to answer the following:
c)[4pt] Categorize the variables as basic and non-basic and provide the current values of all the variables and the value of the objective function at this iteration.
(e.g., Basic variables are ..., and non-basic variables are ...,
x1=dots,x2=dots,dots,x8=dots,&f=dots
d)2pt Is the current solution optimal (i.e., did Simplex converge)? Why/Why not?
e)4pt Identify all non-basic variables that have the potential to improve the objective function, and if that variable enters the basic solution, determine the corresponding basic variable to leave the solution.
