Linear programming is a mathematical optimization technique used to achieve the best solution by optimizing the linear objective function subject to linear inequality and linear equality constraints. This model is designed to solve the optimization problem of the objective function to achieve the best solution.
Components of linear programming are the: decision variable, objective function, and constraints.
An objective function is to make the decision described as a function designed to maximize or minimize the variables.
The decision variable is the variable that the decision-maker controls in the linear programming, where one can either increase its quantity or reduce it.
Constraints are the linear restrictions on the variables such as x>0, y<0 for the x and y var...
