Question
Convert this system of linear inequalities into a system of equations by using slack variables. { _ _ + z = 0
![The image shows a linear programming problem:
Objective Function:
\[ Z = 40x_1 + 30x_2 \]
Subject to the constraints:
\[
\begin{align*}
x_1 + x_2 & \leq 12 \\
2x_1 + x_2 & \leq 16 \\
x_1 & \geq 0 \\
x_2 & \geq 0 \\
\end{align*}
\]
Additionally, there's a note discussing slack variables, indicating that they are used to convert inequalities into equalities within linear programming.](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/768f2fdc-1b8a-4f18-b4f5-0b93a76d91d1/a79f6d9a-3eca-4562-a12b-06427d135e20/cu2k68xa.jpeg)
