Determine Optimal Values by Identifying Constraints and Using Linear Programming Techniques - Mathematics Instructional Plan

Students will use linear programming techniques to create a plan for a 4H Club to maximize profits selling fir trees. In doing so, learners will Identify the feasible region of a system of linear inequalities, identify the coordinates of the vertices of a feasible region and determine and describe the maximum or minimum value for the function defined over a feasible region.

Linear ProgrammingMathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.
