1. You've seen the different types of applications where you can use linear programming in our earlier studies. As you consider integer programming, you will note that one of the key differences is that for an IP problem, the decision variables must be integers... and thus the name...
Given that major difference in IP and LP, think about some of the areas where an IP solution would be applicable. Please post a note describing an example where IP would be the best solution method. at lease 100 words.
