Determine whether the following statement makes sense or does not make​ sense, and explain your reasoning. An important application of linear programming for businesses involves minimizing profit. A. The statement does not make sense because linear programming is used to help allocate resources to manufacture products in a way that will maximize profit. B. The statement does not make sense because the application of linear programming should instead be used minimize unnecessary loss. C. The statement does not make sense because a business maximizes profit by applying effective marketing strategies. D. The statement does not make sense because a company will not stay in business if it is not making a profit to fund the next venture.
