Question

A linear programming problem deals with the optimization of a/an:

• A. logarithmic function
• B. linear function
• C. quadratic function
• D. exponential function

Hint:

Linear programming problems are used to optimize linear functions under a set of linear constraints.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Linear programming involves finding the maximum or minimum value of a linear objective function, subject to linear constraints. 

The objective function is of the form: \[ Z = ax + by, \] where \( Z \) is the value to be optimized, and \( x, y \) are variables subject to constraints. The correct answer is (B) linear function.
