Question

In linear programming, optimal solution ____________.

Options

• maximizes the objective function only

• satisfies all the constraints only

• satisfies all the constraints as well as the objective function

• is not unique

Answer 1

In linear programming, the optimal solution satisfies all the constraints as well as the objective function.

Explanation:

The optimal solution in linear programming is any point in the feasible zone that delivers the ideal value (highest or minimum) of the objective function. To put it another way, it fulfills all limitations as well as the objective function.
