Document Summary

There are 4 changes that must be made to a linear program when it is written in standard form: a slack / surplus variable is either added or subtracted from each constraint as follows To plot the first constraint, we need to find two points on the constraint line. First, treat each constraint as an equation (not as an inequality). Using constraint (1), substitute x=0 into the equation and solve for y This gives the coordinates for the first point (x=0, y=4). Now, substitute y=0 into the constraint and solve for x This gives us the coordinates for the second point (x=-8, y=0). The same process will now be followed in order to plot the remaining two constraints. www. statsdoesntsuck. com. 0 www. statsdoesntsuck. comonce the constraints are all plotted, the lines create a number of areas. Each of these areas could potentially be the feasible region. To determine which one is the correct feasible region, a process of elimination will be used.
