You are faced with a linear programming objective function of:
Max P = $20X + $30Y
and constraints of:
3X + 4Y = 24 (Constraint A)
5X – Y = 18 (Constraint B)
You discover that the shadow price for Constraint A is 7.5 and the shadow price for Constraint B is 0. Which of these statements is TRUE?
A. The most you would want to pay for an additional unit of A would be $7.50.
B. You can change quantities of X and Y at no cost for Constraint B. C. For every additional unit of the objective function you create, the price of A rises by $7.50.
D. For every additional unit of the objective function you create, you lose 0 units of B.
