This PowerPoint will guide you through an example of using the Big M Method for solving simplex algorithm problems with “greater than or equals to” constraints. There is a video of the PowerPoint ...

The death of mathematician George Dantzig is a scientific watershed. Dantzig developed "linear programming" and the simplex method, used to solve complex efficiency problems for large organizations.

An optimization problem is one where you have to make the best decision (choose the best investments, minimize your company’s costs, find the class schedule with the fewest morning classes, or so on).
