So far we have learnt how to construct a mathematical model for a linear programming problem. If we can find the values of the decision variables x 1 , x 2 , x 3 , ..... x n , which can optimise (maximize or minimize) the objective function Z, then we say that these values of x i are the ..

Graphical Method of Solution of a Linear Programming Problem - So far we have learnt how to construct a mathematical model for a linear programming problem. If we can find the values of the decision variables x 1 , x 2 , x 3 , ..... x n , which can optimise (maximize or minimize..

Limitations of Linear Programming - Linear programming is applicable only to problems where the constraints and objective function are linear i.e., where they can be expressed as equations which represent straight lines. In real life situations, when constraints or objective functions are..

Applications - After the elementary study in probability, let us see how we can utilise this basic knowledge in solving problems of different are..

A travelling sales man can find the shortest routes to save time / fuel cost. The most economic and efficient manner of locating manufacturing plants and distribution centres may be used. Linear programming may be used for effective and efficient production management and manpower manageme..

To provide the required protection at the minimum cost, linear programming is used. This technique is useful to cause maximum damage to the enemy with minimum fuel/cos..
