Explain why the nonbasic variables x₁, x3, x4, and x5 can never assume positive
values at the end of Phase II. Hence, conclude that their columns can be dropped before
we start Phase II. In essence, the removal of these variables reduces the constraint equa-
tions of the problem to x₂ = 2-meaning that it is not necessary to carry out Phase II in
this problem.
