The book is designed for use in courses that focus on the applications of constrained optimization, in courses that emphasize the theory, and in courses that link the subject to economics. It surveys models that optimize something, subject to constraints. The simplest such models are linear, and the ideas used to analyze linear models generalize easily. The book fuses five components: -It uses examples to introduce general ideas. -It engages the student in spreadsheet computation. -It surveys the uses of constrained optimization. -It presents the mathematics that relates to constrained...
