question 23

Multiple Choice

The constraint 5x₁ + 3x₂ < 150 is modified to become a goal equation, and priority one is to avoid overutilization.Which of the following is appropriate?

• A)Min P₁d₁^- ; 5x₁ + 3x₂ + d₁^- - d₁⁺ = 150
• B)Min P₁d₁⁺ ; 5x₁ + 3x₂ + d₁^- - d₁⁺ = 150
• C)Min P₁d₁⁺ ; 5x₁ + 3x₂ + d₁⁺ = 150
• D)Min P₁d₁⁺ ; 5x₁ + 3x₂ - d₁⁺ = 150
