MCQ
Let $X_1$ and $X_2$ are optimal solutions of a $\ce{LPP},$ then:
  • A
    $\text{X}=\lambda\ \text{X}_1+(1-\lambda)\text{X}_2,\lambda\in R$ is also an optimal solution
  • $\text{X}=\lambda\ \text{X}_1+(1-\lambda)\text{X}_2,0\leq\lambda\leq1$ given an optimal solution
  • C
    $\text{X}=\lambda\ \text{X}_1+(1+\lambda)\text{X}_2,0\leq\lambda\leq1$ given an optimal solution
  • D
    $\text{X}=\lambda\ \text{X}_1+(1+\lambda)\text{X}_2,\lambda\in R$ given an optimal solution

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\text{X}=\lambda\ \text{X}_1+(1-\lambda)\text{X}_2,0\leq\lambda\leq1$ given an optimal solution
A set $A$ is convex if, for any two points $X_1, X_2 \in\text{A}$ and $\lambda\in0,1$ imply that $\lambda\times1+1-\lambda\times2\in\text{A}$.
Since, here $X_1$ and $X_2$ are optimal solution
Therefore, their convex combination will also be an optimal solution
Thus, $\text{X}=\lambda\ \text{X}_1+(1-\lambda)\text{X}_2,0\leq\lambda\leq1$ gives an optimal solution.

Apply linear programming to this problem. A firm wants to determine how many units of each of two products (products D and E) they should produce to make the most money. The profit in the manufacture of a unit of product D is 100 and the profit in the manufacture of a unit of product E is100 and the profit in the manufacture of aunit of product E is 87. The firm is limited by its total available labor hours and total available machine hours. The total labor hours per week are 4,000. Product D takes 5 hours per unit of labor and product E takes 7 hours per unit. The total machine hours are 5,000 per week. Product D takes 9 hours per unit of machine time and product E takes 3 hours per unit. Which of the following is one of the constraints for this linear program?
