K Beispiel Beispiel Schritt : Für i =,,m zeichne nacheinander die Geraden a i x + a i x = b i und die zugehörigen Halbräume a i x + a i x < b i. Schritt : Bestimme den Zulässigkeitsbereich, d.h. das Polyeder P, gegeben als die Menge aller x, x > 0, die im Durchschnitt der Halbräume a i x + a i x < b i liegen. Schritt. Wähle irgendeine Zahl z und zeichne die Gerade c x + c x = z. Schritt 4: Verschiebe diese Gerade parallel, so dass der Wert von z größer wird. Tue dies so lange bis ein Wert z =:z* erreicht ist, so dass die Gerade c x + c x = z* das Polyeder P nur noch berührt, d.h. das Polyeder vollständig auf einer Seite der Geraden liegt. Wähle (x * x *) als einen der Eckpunkte, in denen die Gerade c x + c x = z das Polyeder berührt.

7 Extreme Point Theorem Every linear program in two variables is either () infeasible (i.e. its fesibility polyhedron is empty), or () unbounded (i.e. its objective function value is unbounded), or () has an optimal solution which corresponds to an extreme point (= corner point) of the feasibility polyhedron. Proof: Graphical procedure leads to situation () unless () occurs or the line can be pushed out without leaving the feasibility polyhedron (situation ()).
