Sensitivity analysis could be used to estimate the range of values of the coefficient of the constraints, taken one at a time, that would keep the same variables as the current solution, in the optimal solution (same variables basic), though the magnitude of the variables may change.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Sensitivity analysis in linear programming allows for the examination of how changes in the coefficients of the constraints (while changing one coefficient at a time) affect the optimal solution. It helps in understanding the range within which these coefficients can vary without changing the set of basic variables in the solution, although the values of these variables might change.
