Sheet No.

1- Suppose that the following constraints have been provided for a linear
programming model with decision variables x1 and x2.
_-x1 + 3x2 ≤ 30
-3x1 + x2 ≤ 30
and
x1 ≥ 0, x2 ≥ 0.
a. Solve this problem graphically.
b. If the objective is to maximize Z= -x1 + x2, does the model have an optimal solution?
If so, find it. If not, explain why not.
c. Repeat part (b) when the objective is to maximize Z= x1 - x2.
d. For objective functions where this model has no optimal solution, does this mean that
there are no good solutions according to the model? Explain. What probably went
wrong when formulating the model?
