A factory models output with and finds the system incompatible. Which statements are true?
Hints
- Incompatible means the constraints contradict each other structurally.
- Rescaling the right-hand side need not cure a contradiction.
Show the answer
- B. Geometrically, some constraint lines/planes never meet
- C. exceeds
- D. The constraints contradict each other, no production plan satisfies all of them
Why
Incompatibility is a structural contradiction between constraints. Rescaling may or may not cure it, the fix is renegotiating constraints, not multiplying wishes.
