Question

Which expression has the general form of an objective function with constants \(a\) and \(b\)?

Options

• \[Z=ax+by\]

• \[x\geq 0,\ y\geq 0\]

• \[5x+y\leq 100\]

• \[x+y\leq 60\]

Answer 1

An objective function is generally written as \[Z=ax+by\]. Here, \(a\) and \(b\) are constants, while \(x\) and \(y\) are decision variables.
