In Problem, there is a tie for the choice of the first pivot column. Use the simplex method to solve each problem two different ways: first by choosing column 1 as the first pivot column, and then by choosing column 2 as the first pivot column. Discuss the relationship between these two solutions.
Maximize subject to
P = x1 + x2
x1 + 2x2 ≤ 10
x1 ≤ 24
x2 ≥ 4
x1,x2 ≥ 0
