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.
Dual of LP:
The dual of the given LP is another LP derived in the following schematic way from the original (the primal) LP.
- Every variable in the primal Linear Programming becomes a constraint in the dual LP.
- Every limit in the primal Linear Programming becomes a variable in the dual LP.
- In the dual LP, the objective direction is inversed. That is, the maximum in the primal becomes minimum in the dual and vice-versa.
Explanation of Solution
Optimal solution of the dual:
The optimal solution to the dual is,

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.
Restrictions
1. The total amount of feed should be at least 800 grams per day.2. The feed should contain at least 30% protein…
QUESTION 9
What is one advantage of AABB over Bounding Spheres?
Computing the optimal AABB for a set of points is easy to program and
can be run in linear time. Computing the optimal bounding sphere is a
much more difficult problem.
The volume of AABB can be an integer, while the volume of a Bounding
Sphere is always irrational.
An AABB can surround a Bounding Sphere, while a Bounding Sphere
cannot surround an AABB.
To draw a Bounding Ball you need calculus knowledge.
In regards of the problem:max cTx subject to Ax = b, with an optimal solution of value v. Suppose the problem min cT x, subject to Ax = b have great with the same value, v. It can be concluded that there is a singlegood point for both? How is the feasible region geometrically?

(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. In other words, if OP T is the total cost of the optimal solution, and AP P is the total cost of our approximate solution, clearly explain why AP P ≤ 2 × OP T.arrow_forwardPlease explain!
