Ob jective. Every linear program has an ob jective. This ob jective is to be either minimized
or maximized. This ob jective has to be linear in the decision variables, which means it must be
the sum of constants times decision variables. 3x1
10x2 is a linear function. x1x2 is not a linear
function. In this case, our ob jective is to maximize the function 750x1 + 1000x2 (what units is this
in?).
