What are the main components of a linear programming problem (LPP)?
A Linear Programming Problem (LPP) consists of three main components:
-
Objective Function – A linear function that needs to be maximized or minimized.
-
Constraints – A set of linear inequalities or equations that define the feasible region.
-
Feasible Region – The set of all possible solutions that satisfy the given constraints.
The optimal solution lies within the feasible region and is determined using graphical or algebraic methods.
