Linear Programming ProjectRubric
Directions: work in a group of 3 or 4 students to complete the linear programming problem given to you. You
will then create a presentation booklet which answers your question, including the supporting work. Here are the
expectations for what will be in the booklet:
1. You will make a cover page which includes the group members and a title which reflects the problem. Please
also include date and hour.
2. The first page will be a restatement of the original problem, hand written or typed by a team member.
3. The second page will have your constraints and objective function, written neatly and organized.
4. The third page will be a graph showing your feasible region and vertices (clearly labeled with coordinates).
Please make sure you label your x and y axis of your graph appropriately.
5. The fourth page should show your work evaluating your vertices and clearly answering the question.
6. The last page is this rubric. PLEASE SELF ASSESS!! In each area, circle where you think your group
belongs.

Creativity and Neatness Points Awarded with
comments
5 - The work is presented in a neat, clear, organized fashion that is easy to read. Students took time to
personalize the project and make it their own. Care was taken so that the project looked nice, was colorful, and
pleasing to the eye.
4 - The work is presented in a neat, clear, and organized fashion that is mostly easy to read. Some effort was
made to personalize the project. Some effort was made to make the project look nice, colorful, and dynamic.
3 - The work is presented in a neat and organized fashion that is usually easy to read. Either effort was made to
personalize the project or make it nice, colorful, and dynamic, but not both.
2 - The work is presented in an organized fashion but may be hard to read at times. Little effort made to
personalize the project and it is not colorful or dynamic
1 - The work appears sloppy and unorganized. It is hard to know what information goes together. No attempt
was made to personalize the project or make it colorful and dynamic.
Constraints
5 – 1)All constraints are written correctly. 2)Variables are clearly defined. 3)Constraints are organized, easy to
read and clearly labeled.
4 – 1 mistake made in one of the areas above
3 – At least 2 mistakes made in the areas above
2 – At least 4 mistakes made in the areas above
1 – At least 5 mistakes made in the areas above
0 – Student did not attempt to write constraints/objective function or did not include them in the project.
Graph
5 – No graphing errors: 1) Graphed correctly 2)vertices clearly labeled 3)Scale is clearly shown on x/y axis.
4)Both x/y axis are labeled appropriately.
4 – Student made at least 1 graphing error either in the graph or in the vertices/labels.
3 – Student made at least 2 graphing errors either in the graph or in the vertices/labels.
2 – Student made at least 4 graphing errors either in the graph or in the vertices/labels.
1 – Student made at least 5 either in the graph or in the vertices/labels.
0 – Student did not attempt to graph the constraints
Conclusion – Vertices Evaluated, objective function written
5 – 1) Student listed ALL the vertices. 2)Student correctly wrote the objective function and labeled it.
3)Student correctly evaluated all the vertices neatly. 4)Student answered the problem correctly and put the
answer in a correct sentence.
4 – 1 mistake made in one of the areas above
3 – At least 2 mistakes made in the areas above
2 – At least 4 mistakes made in the areas above
1 – At least 5 mistakes made in the areas above
0 – Student did not write the objective function or did not evaluate the vertices in the objective function.
