Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 6.4, Problem 12P
Explanation of Solution
Optimal solution of the diet problem:
- The case 1 result for right- hand side states that “All constraints whose right-hand sides are being modified and non-binding constraints”.
- Now it can be seen that is a constraint is non-binding in the optimal solution, then its slack or excess variable is in the optimal basis and the corresponding column of

True or False
Solve the following exercise using jupyter notebook for Python, to find the objective function, variables, constraint matrix and print the graph with the optimal solution.
A farm specializes in the production of a special cattle feed, which is a mixture of corn and soybeans. The nutritional composition of these ingredients and their costs are as follows:
- Corn contains 0.09 g of protein and 0.02 g of fiber per gram, with a cost of.$0.30 per gram.- Soybeans contain 0.60 g of protein and 0.06 g of fiber per gram, at a cost of $0.90 per gram.0.90 per gram.
The dietary needs of the specialty food require a minimum of 30% protein and a maximum of 5% fiber. The farm wishes to determine the optimum ratios of corn and soybeans to produce a feed with minimal costs while maintaining nutritional constraints and ensuring that a minimum of 800 grams of feed is used daily.

(a) In every instance (i.e., example) of the TSP, we are given n cities, where each pair of cities is connected by a weighted edge that measures the cost of traveling between those two cities. Our goal is to find the optimal TSP tour, minimizing the total cost of a Hamiltonian cycle in G. Although it is NP-complete to solve the TSP, we found a simple 2-approximation by first generating a minimum-weight spanning tree of G and using this output to determine our TSP tour. Prove that our output is guaranteed to be a 2-approximation, provided the Triangle Inequality holds.
