Use Graphical Method as discussed in class to solve two-variable linear programming (LP) problems.
1) Solve the following LP problem
Maximize Z(x1, X2) = 3x1 + 2x2
Subject to
2x1 + x2 < 12
- x1+ x2 < 3
X1 2 0, x2 > 0
1.1) Draw the graph corresponding to the given constraint inequalities and non-negative conditions based on the
above LP model.
1.2) On your graph, clearly identify the region of feasible solutions (feasible region) of this LP model.
1.3) On your graph, use a dashed line to demonstrate how the optimal solution of this problem is to be found.
1.4) Identify from your graph or calculate the value of the optimal solution (xi, x2).
1.5) Calculate the corresponding optimal objective function value Z(xj , x;).
