Card 1Introduction and Basic Concepts

What is a Linear Programming Problem (LPP)?

Answer

A Linear Programming Problem is a mathematical optimization technique that deals with maximizing or minimizing a linear objective function subject to linear constraints (inequalities or equations). It

Card 2Mathematical Formulation

What are the three main components of a Linear Programming Problem?

Answer

The three main components of LPP are: 1. Decision Variables - Variables representing quantities to be determined (x, y, etc.) 2. Objective Function - Linear function to be maximized or minimized (Z =

Card 3Mathematical Formulation

Define Decision Variables in LPP.

Answer

Decision variables are the unknown quantities that need to be determined in an LPP. They represent the activities or limitations competing for available resources. These variables are continuous, cont

Card 4Mathematical Formulation

What is an Objective Function in LPP?

Answer

The objective function is a linear function that represents the goal to be achieved - either maximization (profit, production) or minimization (cost, time). It is expressed as Z = ax + by, where a and

Card 5Mathematical Formulation

What are constraints in LPP and what are non-negativity restrictions?

Answer

Constraints are limitations on resources expressed as linear inequalities or equations (e.g., 2x + 3y ≤ 100). They represent restrictions like limited raw materials, labor hours, or storage space. Non

Card 6Introduction and Basic Concepts

List the four basic assumptions of Linear Programming.

Answer

The four basic assumptions of LPP are: 1. Certainty - All parameters are known and fixed 2. Divisibility (Continuity) - Variables can take fractional values 3. Proportionality - Each variable's contri

Card 7Types of LPP

What are the main types of Linear Programming Problems?

Answer

The main types of LPP are: 1. Manufacturing Problem - Production optimization with resource constraints 2. Diet Problem - Nutritional requirements at minimum cost 3. Transportation Problem - Minimizin

Card 8Solutions and Feasible Region

Define Feasible Solution in LPP.

Answer

A feasible solution is a set of values for decision variables that satisfies all the constraints of the LPP, including non-negativity restrictions. Every point in the feasible region represents a feas
