the correct way to implement a sensitivity analysis for the second coefficient of the objective function is to vary not only the second coefficient but also the first one (at the same time).

False

The properties of a linear programming problem are

Proportionality, additivity, divisibility, and certainty

If the objective function slope is exactly the same as one of the constraints and this specific constraint is redundant, we have a case of multiple optimal solutions.

false

Sensitivity ranges can be computed only for the coefficients of the objective function.

false

The sensitivity range for an objective function coefficient is the range of values over which the current __________________ remains the same. Please choose the option that would best fit the empty space above:

optimal solution

If one of the coefficients of the objective function is changed to a value outside of its respective sensitivity range (greater than the upper limit or lower than the lower limit), the optimal solution will be different than the one originally obtained before the change is implemented.

true

Sensitivity analysis is a way to deal with uncertainty in linear programming models.

true

the optimal solution for a company that is able to produce two different products (x1 and x2) is x1 = 0 and x2 = 6. The best strategy for this company is to produce only x2.
