How can the following Linear Program be characterized?
Min X + Y
Subject to
X ≥ 20
Y ≥ -5
X + Y ≤ 23
A) bounded and feasible
B) unbounded and feasible
C) bounded and infeasible
D) unbounded and infeasible
E) this is not a Linear Program

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The linear program is feasible because there are no constraints that negate each other or create contradictions. In addition, the feasible region is bounded since X has a lower bound of 20 and Y has an upper bound of -5. Therefore, the optimal solution exists and is bounded.
