What will I learn?
Gain expertise in the simplex method through this practical course. You will formulate linear programs, transform them into standard form, create initial tableaus using slack variables, perform pivot operations accurately while tracking the basis, and interpret optimal solutions including slacks, profits, and sensitivity analysis to inform decision-making effectively.
