coefficient with the largest absolute value in the Eq. (0) as the entering
basic variable.
EX. If Z = 3X1 + 3X2 => Eq.(0) became Z - 3X1 - 3X2 = 0
Q:How should this tie be broken?
A : Te answer is that the selection between these contenders may be made
arbitrarily.
occur.)
- The basic variable with a value of zero are called degenerate.
- In practice, just break this kind of tie arbitrarily and proceed without
Z - 3 X1 - 5 X2 = 0
S.T.: X1 ≤ 4 =>
X1 + X 3 = 4
and X1 ≥ 0 and X2 ≥0
Table:4.9
Basic Coefficient of: Right
Variable Eq. Z X1 X2 X3 Side Ratio
Z (0) 1 -3 -5 0 0
X3 (1) 0 1 0 1 4 None
- Because the minimum ratio test uses only coefficients that are greater than
zero, there is no ratio to provide a leaving basic variable.
- Interpretation of Table 4.9:
The coefficients do not prevent the value of the objective function Z
increasing indefinitely, so the simplex method would stop with the
message that Z is unbounded.
Case 4:Multiple optimal solutions.
EX:If Max: Z = 3X1+2X2
- Every point on the line segment between ( 2,6 ) and ( 4,3 ) is optimal. Thus,
all optimal solution are a weighted average of these two optimal CPF
solution. ( X1, X2 ) = W1‧( 2,6 ) + W2‧( 4,3 ),
Where the weight W1 and W2 are numbers that satisfy the relationship.
W1+W2=1 and W1 ≥0 , W2 ≥0
EX : W1=1/3 and W2=2/3 give (X1,X2)=1/3(2,6)+2/3(4,3)=(10/3,4) —as one
optimal solution.
