[QUOTE="Ray Vickson, post: 4541741, member: 330118"] Look at [PLAIN]http://faculty.northgeorgia.edu/kmelton/LPgraph.htm[/PLAIN] for example. Basically, you want to find the largest or smallest value of f(x,y) that is obtainable within the feasible region, so look at the iso-objective lines f(x,y) = constant, for various values of the constant. For example, look at the two lines f(x,y) = 1 and f(x,y) = 2. Do they intersect the feasible region? If so, what about f(x,y) = 3? What about f(x,y) = 4? In this way you will have a series of parallel lines, and you need to find that line f(x,y) = v having the largest value of the constant v (for the max problem) or the smallest value of v (for the min problem). Draw two or three of the lines, and you will soon see what is going on. [/QUOTE]
