Revision Notes — Linear Programming

Key concepts, formulas, and definitions from Linear Programming for ICAR AIEEA Mathematics preparation.

Key Topics to Revise

1

Fundamental Concepts and Definitions

  • Linear Programming deals with optimization of linear functions subject to linear constraints
  • All variables must be non-negative (x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0)
  • Constraints are represented as linear inequalities
2

Mathematical Formulation of LPP

  • Step 1: Identify decision variables (what we need to find)
  • Step 2: Formulate objective function (what to optimize)
  • Step 3: Write all constraints as linear inequalities
3

Graphical Method - Step by Step Solution

  • Step 1: Convert inequalities to equations and plot boundary lines
  • Step 2: Determine which side of each line satisfies the inequality
  • Step 3: Find the intersection region of all constraints (feasible region)
4

Worked Examples with Complete Solutions

  • Example 1: Maximization Problem
  • Example 2: Minimization Problem
  • Example 3: Unbounded Feasible Region
