The problem is now in the standard form for linear programming problems: an objective function that is to be maximized, subject to a number of constraints. We go on to examine solution methods. Two ...

Instead, you can apply a rigorous mathematical model called linear programming, which roughly approximates the problem as a set of equations and methodically checks the possible combinations to find ...
