Simplex Method
•When decision variables are more than 2, we always use Simplex Method
•Slack Variable: Variable added to a  constraint to convert it to an
equation (=).
• A slack variable represents unused resources
• A slack variable contributes nothing to the objective
function value.
•Surplus Variable: Variable subtracted from a  constraint to convert it to
an equation (=).
• A surplus variable represents an excess above a constraint
requirement level.
• Surplus variables contribute nothing to the calculated value
of the objective function.

Basic Solution(BS) : This solution is obtained by setting any n variables
(among m+n variables) equal to zero and solving for remaining m
variables, provided the determinant of the coefficients of these variables
is non-zero. Such m variables are called basic variables and remaining n
zero valued variables are called non basic variables.
Basic Feasible Solution(BFS) : It is a basic solution which also satisfies the
non negativity restrictions.
Cont…..
BFS are of two types:
◦ Degenerate BFS: If one or more basic variables are zero.
◦ Non-Degenerate BFS: All basic variables are non-zero.
Optimal BFS: BFS which optimizes the objective function.
Example
Max. Z = 13x1+11x2
Subject to constraints:
4x1+5x2 < 1500
5x1+3x2 < 1575
x1+2x2 < 420
x1, x2 > 0
Solution :
Step 1: Convert all the inequality constraints into equalities
by the use of slack variables.
Let S1, S2 , S3 be three slack variables.
Introducing these slack variables into the inequality constraints
and rewriting the objective function such that all variables are on
the left-hand side of the equation. Model can rewritten as:
Z - 13x1 -11x2 = 0
Subject to constraints:
4x1+5x2 + S1 = 1500
5x1+3x2 +S2= 1575
x1+2x2 +S3 = 420
x1, x2, S1, S2, S3 > 0
Cont…
Step II: Find the Initial BFS.
One Feasible solution that satisfies all the constraints is: x1= 0, x2= 0, S1=
1500,
S2= 1575, S3= 420 and Z=0.
Now, S1, S2, S3 are Basic variables.

Introduction
LPP, in which constraints may also have > and = signs, we
introduce a new type of variable , called the artificial
variable. These variables are fictitious and cannot
have any physical meaning. Two Phase Simplex
Method is used to solve a problem in which some
artificial variables are involved. The solution is
obtained in two phases.
Example
Min.. Z = 15/2 x1 - 3x2
Subject to constraints:
3x1 - x2 - x3 > 3
x1 - x2 + x3 > 2
x1, x2, x3 > 0

x1, x2, x3 > 0
Cont…
Modified form is :
Introduce surplus variables S1 and S2, and artificial variables
a1 and a2
Z’ + 15/2 x1 - 3x2 = 0
Subject to constraints:
3x1 - x2 - x3 –S1 + a1 = 3
x1 - x2 + x3 –S2 + a2 = 2
x1, x2, x3 , S1, S2, a1, a2 > 0
Cont…
Phase I : Simplex method is applied to a specially constructed
Auxiliary LPP leading to a final simplex table containing a BFS
to the original problem.
•Step 1: Assign a cost –1 to each artificial variable and a cost
0 to all other variables in the objective function.
•Step 2: Construct the auxiliary LPP in which the new
objective function Z* is to be maximized subject to the given
set of constraints.
Cont…
Max. Z* = -a1 –a2
Z* + a1 + a2 = 0
Subject to constraints:
3x1 - x2 - x3 –S1 + a1 = 3
x1 - x2 + x3 –S2 + a2 = 2
x1, x2, x3 , S1, S2, a1, a2 > 0
Auxiliary LPP is:
Initial solution is a1 = 3, a2 = 2 and Z* = 0
Cont…
•Step 3: Solve the auxiliary problem by simplex method until either
of the following three possibilities arise:
•Max Z* < 0 and at least one artificial variable appear in the
optimum basis at a positive level. In this case given problem
does not have any feasible solution.
•Max Z* = 0 and at least one artificial variable appear in the
optimum basis at a zero level. In this case proceed to Phase II.
•Max Z* = 0 and no artificial variable appear in the optimum
basis. In this case also proceed to Phase II.

Phase II: The artificial variables which are non basic at the end of
Phase I are removed from the table and as well as from the
objective function and constraints. Now assign the actual costs to

one basic variable becomes equal to zero in the next
iteration and the new solution is said to be Degenerate.

  • 2. Simplex Method •When decision variables are more than 2, we always use Simplex Method •Slack Variable: Variable added to a  constraint to convert it to an equation (=). • A slack variable represents unused resources • A slack variable contributes nothing to the objective function value. •Surplus Variable: Variable subtracted from a  constraint to convert it to an equation (=). • A surplus variable represents an excess above a constraint requirement level. • Surplus variables contribute nothing to the calculated value of the objective function.
  • 3. Cont…. Basic Solution(BS) : This solution is obtained by setting any n variables (among m+n variables) equal to zero and solving for remaining m variables, provided the determinant of the coefficients of these variables is non-zero. Such m variables are called basic variables and remaining n zero valued variables are called non basic variables. Basic Feasible Solution(BFS) : It is a basic solution which also satisfies the non negativity restrictions.
  • 4. Cont….. BFS are of two types: ◦ Degenerate BFS: If one or more basic variables are zero. ◦ Non-Degenerate BFS: All basic variables are non-zero. Optimal BFS: BFS which optimizes the objective function.

  • 28. Introduction LPP, in which constraints may also have > and = signs, we introduce a new type of variable , called the artificial variable. These variables are fictitious and cannot have any physical meaning. Two Phase Simplex Method is used to solve a problem in which some artificial variables are involved. The solution is obtained in two phases.
  • 29. Example Min.. Z = 15/2 x1 - 3x2 Subject to constraints: 3x1 - x2 - x3 > 3 x1 - x2 + x3 > 2 x1, x2, x3 > 0
  • 30. Cont… Convert the objective function into the maximization form Max. Z’ = -15/2 x1 + 3x2 where Z’= -Z Subject to constraints: 3x1 - x2 - x3 > 3 x1 - x2 + x3 > 2 x1, x2, x3 > 0
  • 31. Cont… Modified form is : Introduce surplus variables S1 and S2, and artificial variables a1 and a2 Z’ + 15/2 x1 - 3x2 = 0 Subject to constraints: 3x1 - x2 - x3 –S1 + a1 = 3 x1 - x2 + x3 –S2 + a2 = 2 x1, x2, x3 , S1, S2, a1, a2 > 0
  • 32. Cont… Phase I : Simplex method is applied to a specially constructed Auxiliary LPP leading to a final simplex table containing a BFS to the original problem. •Step 1: Assign a cost –1 to each artificial variable and a cost 0 to all other variables in the objective function. •Step 2: Construct the auxiliary LPP in which the new objective function Z* is to be maximized subject to the given set of constraints.
  • 33. Cont… Max. Z* = -a1 –a2 Z* + a1 + a2 = 0 Subject to constraints: 3x1 - x2 - x3 –S1 + a1 = 3 x1 - x2 + x3 –S2 + a2 = 2 x1, x2, x3 , S1, S2, a1, a2 > 0 Auxiliary LPP is: Initial solution is a1 = 3, a2 = 2 and Z* = 0
  • 34. Cont… •Step 3: Solve the auxiliary problem by simplex method until either of the following three possibilities arise: •Max Z* < 0 and at least one artificial variable appear in the optimum basis at a positive level. In this case given problem does not have any feasible solution. •Max Z* = 0 and at least one artificial variable appear in the optimum basis at a zero level. In this case proceed to Phase II. •Max Z* = 0 and no artificial variable appear in the optimum basis. In this case also proceed to Phase II.

Z* = 0 and no artificial variable appears in the optimum basis, therefore we can proceed to Phase II.
  • 39. Cont… Phase II: The artificial variables which are non basic at the end of Phase I are removed from the table and as well as from the objective function and constraints. Now assign the actual costs to the variables in the Objective function. That is, Simplex method is applied to the modified simplex table obtained at the Phase I. Basic Variable Coefficients of: Sol.
