NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Maths, Chapter 12 - Linear Programming

Last year, you studied linear equations and linear inequities in two variables (along
with their solutions) graphically. You know that linear programming is one of the best
methods of performing optimisation by making some simple assumptions. In NCERT
Class 12, Maths, Chapter 12, you’ll learn how to apply the systems of linear inequalities
and equations to solve real-life problems. In this chapter, you’ll study about Linear
Programming and problems related to linear programming. A Linear programming
problem is one that involves finding the optimal (either maximum or minimum) value
of a linear function of variables called objective function.

Let’s take a look at topics and sub-topics of Class 12 Maths, Chapter 12, Linear Programming –

12.1 Introduction
12.2 Linear Programming Problem and its Mathematical Formulation
12.3 Different Types of Linear Programming Problems

In Class 12 Maths Chapter 12, one will learn – 

Section 12.2 – In this section, you’ll learn about the mathematical formulation of the
linear programming problem and learn new concepts like objective function, optimal
value, decision variables and graphical method of solving linear programming
problems.

Section 12.3 – In this section, you’ll study some of the important linear programmings
problems such as manufacturing problems, diet problems and transportation problems.
For better understanding, examples & solutions are provided along with notes and
several activities. To know more about the Class 12 Maths Chapter 12 Linear
