20. Special Cases in Simplex Method: Alternate Optima
In this video, we solve a linear programming problem using the Simplex Method, highlighting the concept of alternate optima—when multiple optimal solutions exist due to the objective function being parallel to a constraint at the optimal vertex.
We walk through each step to maximize z=x1+x2, and demonstrate how different pivot choices can yield alternative optimal solutions.
Whether you're studying linear programming or preparing for exams, this example provides a clear and comprehensive guide to understanding alternate optima in the Simplex Method.
