Changing a binding constraint also changes the optimal solution.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Changing a binding constraint will affect the feasible region of the problem and therefore affect the optimal solution. In particular, if a binding constraint is relaxed, the feasible region will expand and the optimal solution will change. Similarly, if a non-binding constraint becomes binding, the feasible region will shrink and the optimal solution will also change.
