exists at least one constraint within any given system.

A number of the stories studied this semester explore the conflict between social restraint and inner compulsion. Discuss at least two of the stories in the light of this. Through an exploration of the boundaries between social constraint and inner compulsion‚ Melville and Chekov reveal the restrictions forced upon one’s personal desires as they struggle to find a balance between conflicting values and social norms. Anna and Gurov in ‘The Lady with the Dog’ are restrained by the socially expected

solution has increased by 50 48 = 2. Thus‚ the dual value is 2. c. The right-hand side range for constraint 1 is 5 to 11. As long as the right-hand side stays within this range‚ the dual value of 2 is applicable. Since increasing the right-hand side does not improve the value of the optimal solution‚ decreasing the right-hand side of constraint 1 would b desirable. d. As long as the right-hand side of constraint 2 is between 9 and 18‚ a unit increase in the right-hand side will cause the value of the optimal
