The constraint for resource 1 is 5 X₁ + 4 X₂ ≤ 200. If X₁ = 20 and X₂ = 5, how much of resource 1 is unused? A) 0 B) 80 C) 100 D) 200

Substituting the given values, we get: 5(20) + 4(5) ≤ 200 100 + 20 ≤ 200 120 ≤ 200 This means that the constraint for resource 1 is satisfied, and there is no resource unused. However, if we increase either X₁ or X₂ even by a small amount, the constraint will be violated, and resource 1 will become unused. Therefore, the best choice(s) depend on the requirements of the problem and cannot be determined solely based on this information.
