Excel Solver's __________ is based on a method that searches for an optimal solution by iteratively adjusting a population of candidate solutions.
A)Evolutionary Solver
B)Goal Seeker
C)Simplex LP
D)GRG Nonlinear

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The method described in the question is the evolutionary algorithm, which is the basis for the Excel Solver's Evolutionary Solver. Therefore, the correct choice is A. Goal Seeker is a different feature in Excel that only solves for a single variable, while Simplex LP and GRG Nonlinear use different optimization methods than evolutionary algorithms.
