question 42

Multiple Choice

Suppose that the first goal in a GP problem is to make 3 X₁ + 4 X₂ approximately equal to 36.Using the deviational variables d₁^? and d₁⁺,what constraint can be used to express this goal?

• A)\(3 \mathrm{X}_{1}+4 \mathrm{X}_{2}+\mathrm{d}_{1}^{-}-\mathrm{d}_{1}^{+} \leq 36\)
• B)\(3 \mathrm{x}_{1}+4 \mathrm{X}_{2}-\mathrm{d}_{1}^{-}-\mathrm{d}_{1}^{+}=36\)
• C)\(3 \mathrm{X}_{1}+4 \mathrm{X}_{2}+\mathrm{d}_{1}^{-}+\mathrm{d}_{1}^{+}=30\)
• D)\(3 \mathrm{X}_{1}+4 \mathrm{X}_{2}+\mathrm{d}_{1}^{--} \mathrm{d}_{1}^{+}=36\)
