equation contains one variable with a coefficient of 1 that does not appear in the other equations. These variables are called basic variables; the other variables

The Simplex Method: Step by Step with Tableaus The simplex algorithm (minimization form) can be summarized by the following steps: Step 0. Form a tableau corresponding to a basic feasible solution (BFS). For example, if we assume that the basic variables are (in order) x 1;x 2;:::x m, the simplex tableau takes the initial form shown below: x 1 x 2::: x m x m+1 x

current values of the basic variables are optimal. The optimal values of the non-basic variables are all zero. •If any non-basic variable's cj- zjvalue is 0, alternate optimal solutions might exist. STOP. 15 Example: Simplex Method Solve the following problem by the simplex method: Max 12x1 + 18x2 + 10x3 s.t. 2x1 + 3x2 + 4x3 < 50 canonical simplex tableau for (1.1) corresponding to some basic set of variables with B ) by (A, b).

Check For Feasibility: All slack and surplus must be non-negate and check for restricted condition on each variable, if any. Each feasible solution is called a Basic

However, each tableau in the simplex method corresponds to a movement from one basic variable set BVS (extreme or corner point) to another, making sure that the objective function improves at each iteration until the optimal solution is reached. When increasing the value of the improving non-basic variable, all basic variables for which the bound is tight become 0 y =2→ s3 =0 Choose a tight basic variable, here s3, to be exchanged with the improving non-basic variable, here y We can get the tableau of the new basis by solving the non-basic variable in terms of the basic one and substituting: s3 =2− y ⇒ y =2− s3 Using the above computations, the following iterated simplex tableau is obtained: The above simplex tableau yields a new basic feasible solution with the increased value of z. Now since z1-c1 < 0, y1 enters the basis. Also, since Min. {X Bi / yi >0} = Min {4/2, 7/ (1/2)} = 2, y4 leaves the basis. Thus the leading element will be y21 (=2).

Sometimes, when minimizing za, we may end with a basic solution where za = 0, and therefore xa = 0, and yet have some of the arti cial variables still be basic. This would happen, for example, if we modi ed the rst constraint in our example to x 1 +2x 2 +x 3 +x 4 = 2. In that case, after the rst pivot step, we’d have the tableau below (on the 9.52 The substitution rates give (a) the number of units of each basic variable that must be removed from the solution if a new variable is entered.

Initialization: construct the initial simplex tableau. Decision variables remain nonbasic variables (set equal to zero); Slack variables become basic variables that

We present a new general-purpose solution algorithm, called push However, the simplex method required more itera- tions to reach this extreme point, because an extra iteration was needed to eliminate the ar- tificial variable (a4) in phase I. Fortunately, once we obtain an initial simplex tableau using artificial variables, we need not concern ourselves with whether the basic solution at a particular iteration is feasible for the real problem. Note that by choosing the slack variables to be our basic variables and setting them equal to the RHS we get the basis [3,4] and basic solution x = [0,0,2,4] T . Obviously this is a feasible solution Variables in the solution mix, which is often called the basis in LP terminology, are referred to as basic variables. In this example, the basic variables are S 1 and S 2.
