Rewriting Linear Programming Problem As Maximization Problem
Question
Rewrite the given linear programming problem as a maximization problem with constraints involving inequalities of the form ≤ (with the exception of the inequalities x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0)
Minimize C = 2x + 3y
Subject to x + y ≤ 9
x + 2y ≥ 10
4x + y ≥ 14
x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0
a. Minimize P = –2x – 3y
Subject to x + y ≤ 12
x – 2y ≤ –10
–4x + y ≤ –14
x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0
b. Minimize P = –2x – 3y
Subject to x + y ≤ 12
–x – 2y ≤ –10
–4x – y ≤ 14
x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0
c. Minimize P = –2x – 3y
Subject to x + y ≤ 12
–x + 2y ≤ 10
4x – y ≤ 14
x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0
d. Minimize P = –2x – 3y
Subject to x + y ≤ 12
–x – 2y ≤ –10
–4x – y ≤ –14
x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0
e. Minimize P = 2x + 3y
Subject to x + y ≤ 12
x – 2y ≤ –10
–4x – y ≤ –14
x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0
Summary
The question belongs to Mathematics and it is about rewriting a linear programming problem as a maximization problem with constraints involving inequalities of the form ≤.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
