This video explains maximization and minimization problems in linear programming. We show you how to maximize and/or minimize an objective function over a feasible region. We work several examples, which include both bounded and unbounded regions, and discuss the effect that each has on the results of finding a maximum or a minimum on the feasible region. Our examples in this video use systems of linear inequalities already graphed in our previous video from this series.
