Program Plan Intro
Dual of Linear
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.
Weak Duality:
- The weak duality is an optimization concept that states that the gap in duality is always greater than or equal to 0.
- This means the solution to the primary(minimization) problem is always greater than or equal to the solution to a dual problem associated with it.
Explanation of Solution
b.
Validity of the form of Lemma 3:
For showing validity of form of Lemma 3, it need to show that the dual is feasible and this will imply that the primal is bounded.
Assuming that the dual is to be feasible, let
Then Weak Duality implies that

(a) Stingy SAT is the following problem: given a set of clauses (each a disjunction of
literals) and an integer k, find a satisfying assignment in which at most k variables
are true, if such an assignment exists. Prove that stingy SAT is NP-hard.
(b) The Double SAT problem asks whether a given satisfiability problem has at least two
different satisfying assignments. For example, the problem {{V1, V2}, {V1, V2}, {V1, V2}}
is satisfiable, but has only one solution (v₁ = F, v₂ = T). In contrast, {{V1, V2}, {V1, V2}}
has exactly two solutions. Show that Double-SAT is NP-hard.

weight and a profit, you are to put the objects in a bag of capacity C such that the sum of
weights of the items in the bag does not exceed Cand the profits of the items is maximized.

- Correct answer will be upvoted else downvoted. Annie's nursery is a limitless 2D plane. She has n potatoes to plant, and the I-th potato should be planted at (xi,yi). Beginning at the point (0,0), Annie starts strolling, in one stage she can travel one unit right or up (expanding her x or y facilitate by 1 individually). Anytime (X,Y) during her walk she can establish a few potatoes at discretionary focuses utilizing her potato weapon, burning-through max(|X−x|,|Y−y|) units of energy to establish a potato at (x,y).
