Topic: Industrial Engineering
The mathematical technique for finding the best uses of limited resources in an optimum manner is known as-
- A. Operation research
- B. Linear programming
- C. Network analysis
- D. Queuing theory
Answer: B. Linear programming
Explanation: Linear Programming (L.P.) is used for optimization of our limited resources when there are number of alternate solution possible for the problem. It's the mathematical technique and the term linear is used for the variable and it simply means that the relationship between the different variable can be represented in the form of straight line.
