the company can hold on Tuesdays and Thursdays to make the highest weekly profit
without interfering with consultations, which are also scheduled for Tuesdays and
Thursdays and use the same resources.Use Solver to find this information as follows:
a. Use the total weekly profit (cell G16, named Total_Weekly_Profit) as the objective
cell in the Solver model, with the goal of determining the maximum value for that
cell.
b. Use the number of Tuesday and Thursday sessions for the five programs (range
B4:F5) as the changing variable cells.
c. Determine and enter the constraints based on the information provided in Table 3.
d. Use Simplex LP as the solving method to find a global optimal solution.
e. Save the Solver model in cell A26.
f. Solve the model, keeping the Solver solution.Table 3: Solver Constraints
