Formulation of the LPP Suppose Julia stock X1 numbers of pizza slices‚ X2 numbers of hot dogs and X2 numbers of sandwiches. Constraints: 1. On the oven space: Space available = 3 x 4 x 16 = 192 sq. feet = 192 x 12 x 12 =27648 sq. inches The oven will be refilled during half time. Thus total space available = 27648 x 2 = 55296 Space required for pizza = 14 x 14 = 196 sq. inches Space required for pizza slice = 196/ 8 = 24.5 sq. inches Total Space required: 24.5 X1 + 16 X2

Simplex Method Paper Simplex Method Paper Many people may be wondering exactly what the simplex method is. The simplex method definition is a method for solving linear programming problems. According to Barnett‚ Byleen‚ and Karl (2011) the simplex method is used routinely on applied problems involving thousands of variables and problem constraints. George B. Dantzig developed the simplex method in 1947. In this paper the topic of discussion includes how to solve a simplex method problem that
