...maximization and minimization linear programming problems using the graphical method of solution. • solve maximization linear programming problems using the simplex method. • construct the Dual of a linear programming problem. • solve minimization linear programming problems by maximizing their Dual. 0.1.2 Introduction One of the major applications of linear algebra involving systems of linear equations is in finding the maximum or minimum of some quantity, such as profit or cost. In mathematics the process of finding an extreme value (maximum or minimum) of a quantity (normally called a function) is known as optimization . Linear programming (LP) is a branch of Mathematics which deals with modeling a decision problem and subsequently solving it by mathematical techniques. The problem is presented in a form of a linear function which is to be optimized (i.e maximized or minimized) subject to a set of linear constraints. The function to be optimized is known as the objective function . Linear programming finds many uses in the business and industry, where a decision maker may want to utilize limited available resources in the best possible manner. The limited resources may include material, money, manpower, space and time. Linear Programming provides various methods of solving such problems. In this unit, we present the basic concepts of linear programming problems, their formulation and methods of solution. 0.1.3 Formulation of linear programming problems Mathematically...

...Gollabhama is an intricate and laborious form of artwork done on saris. It is one of the Prides of Telanga state. Gollabhama is a old art of 50 years.It is well known for the weaver’s most favorite motif “The Milk Maid” a lady carrying the milk pot. Each motif is much thought fully placed according to the design layout of the sari. A typical cotton sari is in white color with various bright colored motives. Later gollabhama started to weave a beauty and profit trough silk saris. Silk gollabhama came in vivid eye-catching colors though the motives were still the same. Process of making gollabhama saris Preparation of Koramaal or the yarn Mixing: This is the process of mixing same or different categories of fibers to get desired properties and cost effectiveness. Mixing is done after the study of essential properties of fiber like staple length, tensile strength, fitness, uniformity etc. Blow room: In this process the cleaning and opening of the cotton is done by beaters and openers. The foreign materials like dust particles, seeds of cotton and other impurities are particularly removed in this process. The cotton tufts are opened and cleaned in this process and the cotton is made out. Carding: Carding is the heart of spinning in this process the minute impurities like small seed particles, immature fibers etc are removed. The straightening and aligning of fibers are done in this process. In carding the blow room lap is attenuated to the card silver. Drawing:...
