Consider the following linear program:           

Max Z = -4x1 + 2x2

Subject To:

-2x1 + 2x2 ≤ 7

x1 ≥ 2

x1 - 4x2 ≤ 0

2x1 + 2x2 ≥ 10

x1, x2 ≥ 0

 

Part A:  Write the LP in standard equality form.

 

Part B:  Solve the original LP graphically (to scale).  Clearly identify the feasible region and, if one or more exist, the optimal solution(s) (provide exact values for x1, x2, and Z).
