Linear Functions There are three different ways to write linear functions. They are slope-intercept‚ point-slope‚ and standard form. There are certain situations where it is better to use one way than another to solve a problem. It is important to understand and comprehend the mechanics of these three forms so that you know what form to use when solving a problem. The first form‚ point-slope‚ is written as y-y1=m(x-x1). M is the slope and x1 and y1 correspond to a point on the line. It’s good to

In the Solver‚ we need to identify the locations (cells) of objective function‚ decision variables‚ nature of the objective function (maximize/minimize) and constraints. Example One (Linear model): Investment Problem Our first example illustrates how to allocate money to different bonds to maximize the total return (Ragsdale 2011‚ p. 121).

TOPIC – LINEAR PROGRAMMING Linear Programming is a mathematical procedure for determining optimal allocation of scarce resources. Requirements of Linear Programming • all problems seek to maximize or minimize some quantity • The presence of restrictions or constraints • There must be alternative courses of action • The objective and constraints in linear programming must be expressed in terms of linear equations or inequalities Objective

Linear Approaches Linear Approach is also known as the managerial approach because all the models that fall under this approach describe changes from the vision until the implementation stage. It is considered the simplest of all the traditional models in the theories of change. According to Stacey (1996) managing a change under any circumstances whether planned or unplanned is complex with many starts and stops throughout the complete process. This conclusion has been come to under the assumptions
