Solve using simplex method
z = 3000x + 5000y
2x + y <= 16
x + 2y <= 11
x + 3y <= 15
Max subject to
The problem is converted to canonical form by adding slack, surplus and artificial variables as appropriate
1. As the constraint- 1 is of type ' ' we should add slack variable
2. As the constraint- 2 is of type ' ' we should add slack variable
After introducing slack variables
subject to
and
Since all
Hence, optimal solution is arrived with value of variables as :
