Question:

Consider the following objective function for a linear programming model:

Maximize Z 2x1  3x2

(a) Draw a graph that shows the corresponding objective function lines for Z 6, Z 12, and Z 18.

(b) Find the slope-intercept form of the equation for each of these three objective function lines. Compare the slope for these three lines. Also compare the intercept with the x2 axis.
