Use the Simplex method to find the maximum optimal solution
Use the Simplex method to find the maximum optimal solution for the following problems: Please show all steps including the optimization model, the Simplex Table, all row operations to solving the simplex table, and graphing the solution. Maximize z = 5a + 3b + c
Subject to: a + b + c <= 6
5a + 3b + 6c <= 15
a,b,c >= 0
Solution
Maximise p = 5x + 3y + z
x + y + z 6
5x + 3y + 6z 15
x 0
y 0
z 0
