Program Plan Intro
Linear
- The linear programming (LP) is also known as linear optimization.
- Consider a mathematical model, and its requirements are used to represent by the linear relationships. The linear programming is the best method to achieve the best outcome of this mathematical model. The outcomes may be, maximum profit or lower cost.
- The linear optimization is also called as mathematical optimization because, it is a special case of mathematical programming.
- More formally, the LP is a technique for optimizing linear objective function subject to constraints of linear equality and linear inequality.

Al Watan supermarket has hire-purchases scheme for locals and expats. The customers will get the credit facility if they satisfy any of the
following conditions:
1. The customer must hold the present job for more than 5 years and reside in the same place at least for 3 years. In this case, the customer
will get credit upto rupees 300 omr.
2. The monthly salary of the customer must exceed 1000 omr and must hold the present job for more than 5 years. In this case credit will
be given upto rupees 500 omr.
3. The monthly salary must exceed 1000 omr and reside at the same place at least for 3 years. In this case credit will be given upto 500
omr.
4. In the case, the customer's monthly salary exceeds 1000 omr, holds the present job for more than 5 years and also reside in the same
place at least for the 3 years, the credit facility will be upto 1000 omr
5 The credit facility is rejected for all other customers.
Prepare a Decision Table for this hire- purchase scheme.
The public utilities commission has decided that the electric company
overcharged its customers for two months last year. To make up the difference to the
customers, the commission orders the company to decrease each of the next month’s bills
by 10%. The city also levies a 3%utility tax, which is to be applied to the bill before it is
discounted. Also, the10% discount does not apply to the utility tax. Assume electricity
costs $0.16per kilowatt-hour. Write a program to compute the next month’s electricity bill
given the number of kilowatt-hours consumed as input
