Cutting Plane Method
Cutting Plane Method
Since the values of s2 and x2 are non-negative, the current table is optimal.
Optimal solution to the given problem:
x1=0 , x2=1 and Min.z= -maxi.(P)=1.
2. Solve the following integer linear programming problem
Maximize Z=6x1+8x2
Subject to
4x1+5X2 ≤ 22 ;
5x1+8x2 ≤30,
x1, x1≥ 0 and integers.
Standard Form
Maximize Z=6x1+8x2
Subject to
4x1+5X2 +s1= 22 ;
5x1+8x2+s2= ≤30,
x1, x1≥ 0 and integers.

The current table is optimal
Optimal solution:
X1= 26/7 , x2= 10/7 and Max. Z=236/7
Both variable are not integer
X1= 3+5/7 ; X2=1+3/7
Select x1 max{5/7, 3/7}
Eqn. related to x1 in the optimal table
X1+(8/7)s1+(-5/7)s2=26/7
X1+(1+1/7)s1+(-1+2/7)s2=3+5/7
Gomory’s constraint /fractional cut
(1/7)s1+(2/7)s2 ≥ 5/7
-(1/7)s1-(2/7)s2≤-5/7
-(1/7)s1-(2/7)s2+G1=-5/7
