Textbook Question
Chapter 6.2, Problem 54E
In Problems 41-56, construct a mathematical model in the form of a linear programming problem. (The answer in the back of the book for these application problems include the model.) Then solve the problem using the simplex method. Include an interpretation of any nonzero slack variables in the optimal solution.
