Overview

Linear Programming Problem (LPP) is a mathematical technique used to optimize (maximize or minimize) a linear objective function subject to linear constraints. This chapter introduces students to the fundamental concepts of LPP, its mathematical formulation, and graphical methods to solve optimizati

Key Concepts
