2. What is it Linear programming is a mathematical method for to achieve the best possible outcome. It is normally use in business and economics to calculate the largest profit at the lowest cost.

3. The following is an example of linear programming. Suppose a farmer has an A square kilometers of agricultural land, intends to grow wheat or barley, or both in accordance with a certain proportion of mixed cultivation. The farmer can only use a limited number of fertilizer and pesticides F P, while the per unit area of wheat and barley will need different amounts of fertilizers and pesticides, wheat to (F1, P1), said barley to (F2, P2) said. Let the price of wheat and barley were sold in S1 and S2, the acreage of wheat and barley can be expressed as the following problem of linear programming problem: max = (to maximize profits - the objective function) (acreage restrictions) (limit on the number of fertilizer) (limit on the number of pesticides) (not planted a negative area) example
