Question

Solve the following LP

Maximize $4x + $3y 

Subject to            2x + 4y ≤ 80 

                             3x + 6y ≥ 30 

                             -3x + 10y ≥ 0 

                             x, y ≥ 0

a) Write the original optimal solution and objective function value.

b) What is the optimal solution and objective function value if the profit per unit of x decreases to $1?

c) What is the optimal solution and objective function value if the first constraint changes to 2x + 4y ≤ 90

d) What is the optimal solution and objective function value if the third constraint changes to -3x + 10y ≤ 0?
