Part One: - Say True or False (1 point each)
_______1. Models provide a manager with an alternative to working directly with reality.
_______2 The Certainty Assumption of linear programming is that each parameter (objective
function coefficient, right hand side) is known with certainty.

artificial variables C. Artificial variable D. Slack variable
Given: Max.Z = 3x1 +5x2
St. to: x1+x2 < 6
3x1+2x2 < 18
X1, x2> 0
______6. The standard form of the above linear programming problem is......
A. Max.Z = 3x1 +5x2+ s1 +s2
St. to: x 2 + s1 = 6
3x1+2x2 +s2 = 18
B. Max.Z = 3x1 +5x2+ 0s1 +0s2

1
St. to: x 2 + s1 = 6
3x1+2x2 +s2 = 18
C. Max.Z = 3x1 +5x2+ s1 +s2
St. to: x2 + 0s1 = 6
3x1+2x2 +0s2 = 18
D. Max.Z = 3x1 +5x2 + s1 +s2 +MA1 +MA2
St. to: x2 + 0s1 +A1 = 6
3x1+2x2 +0s2 +A2 = 18
