Question

1.) Describe an application of linear programming that you might find useful where you work, in a course you are taking or in your personal life. Be specific with your answers. This is an opportunity for you to showcase what you have learned about linear programming and your ability to apply your knowledge to real-world applications. A comment such as "I do not use linear programming" will earn no credit. Do not write something general such as "I could use linear programming to maximize profits at work." If this is true, you do not have to formulate a mathematical model with numbers, but you should provide a general scenario and discuss possible constraints, controllable inputs, uncontrollable inputs, etc. (5 points) 2.) Explain why sensitivity analysis is an important part of modeling using linear programming. What is its purpose? This is an opportunity to showcase what you have learned about sensitivity analysis and your ability to apply your knowledge to linear programming. (5 points)
