. Consider a Linear Programming (LP) problem with two decision variables. If the profit (cost) coefficient of one decision variable of the objective function is increased, then
a. The feasible region will be increased
b. There will be a redundant constraint
c. The slope of the profit (cost) line will be changed
d. The feasible region will be decreased
e. None of the above
With change in unit profit values inthe objective function, there will be no change in the feasible region, but since one of the values of objective function changes, there will be change in the slope of profit line.
Option c is right

When many constraints are present in a linear optimization problem, there is a greater chance that a redundant constraint exists. Assume you are trying to maximize an objective function and you have two decision variables, X1 and X2. If a redundant constraint exists, does the constraint become necessary if you try to minimize (instead of maximize) the same objective function? Why? Do you need an objective function to determine if a constraint is redundant? Explain.

Solve the following model using linear programming (allow for continuous values and determine the values of the decision variables and objective function. Then, round the decision variables values down to the nearest integer and determine the value of the decision variables and objective function, this is an approximate answer to solving the model using integer programming. Observe if the rounding provides a "feasible solution, all constraints are satisfied. Finally, solve the model using integer programming and determine the values of...
