  1. Finding Optimal Values Given Constraints In Slope-Intercept Form

    Find the maximal and minimal value of z=2x+3yz=2x+3y subject to the following constraints:

    yx+2y \geq x+2
    y3x y \leq 3x
    y2x+20 y \leq -2x+20

    1. Finding Optimal Values Given Constraints In Standard Form

      Given the following constraints, find the maximal and minimal value of z=5x+6yz=5x+6y.

      x0x \geq 0
      y0 y \geq 0
      x60 x-6 \leq 0
      x+y6 -x+y \leq 6
      x+y8 x+y \leq 8
      12x+y3 \frac{1}{2}x+y \geq 3

      Topic Notes

      Linear programming is the process of finding the optimized condition (the maxima and/or minima) of a function, given various linear inequalities as constraints.
