Question
### Linear Programming Problem Using Simplex Method

**Problem Statement:**
Maximize \( P = 18x_1 + x_2 \)

**Subject to:**
\[
\begin{align*}
4x_1 + x_2 &\leq 12 \\
x_1 + 8x_2 &\leq 12 \\
x_1, x_2 &\geq 0
\end{align*}
\]

### Part (A) Using Slack Variables

To convert the inequalities into equalities by adding slack variables \( s_1 \) and \( s_2 \):

1. **First Constraint:** 
\[
4x_1 + x_2 + s_1 = 12
\]

2. **Second Constraint:** 
\[
x_1 + 8x_2 + s_2 = 12
\]

3. **Objective Function:** 
\[
P = 18x_1 + x_2
\]

The variables \( x_1, x_2, s_1, s_2 \geq 0 \).

### Part (B) Simplex Tableau

Fill in the blanks in the simplex tableau as follows:

\[
\begin{array}{c|cccc|c}
     & x_1 & x_2 & s_1 & s_2 & \text{P} \\ \hline
s_1  & 4   & 1   & 1   & 0   & 12 \\
s_2  & 1   & 8   & 0   & 1   & 12 \\
\text{P}   & -18 & -1  & 0   & 0   & 0  \\
\end{array}
\]

Determine the pivot element, entering variable, and exiting variable:

- **Pivot Column:** The most negative value in the objective function row is in the \( x_1 \) column.
- **Pivot Row:** Determine using the smallest positive ratio of the right-hand side to the key column, 12/4 for \( s_1 \) and 12/1 for \( s_2 \). The smallest ratio is 12/1, so pivot row is row 2.

Therefore, the pivot element is in the \( x_1 \) column and the \( s_2 \)
