Linear Programming
This topic applies linear programming techniques to solve real-world optimization problems in business, economics, and resource allocation. Learners will formulate linear inequalities from word problems, graph the feasible region, and use objective functions to find optimal values (maximum or minimum). This topic integrates algebra, coordinate geometry, and inequality skills to make informed decisions under constraints. It is a key application of mathematics in management and operations research, and a significant component of the ECZ syllabus that tests higher-order problem-solving and graphical interpretation skills.

Outcomes
If you passExcellent! You can now use linear programming to model and solve optimization problems, a powerful skill for ECZ exams and practical decision-making.
If you don't pass yetLinear programming requires careful translation of words into inequalities and accurate graphing. Revisit the steps for shading regions and testing corner points. Practice makes perfect.
