Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A redundant constraint is one which does not have an impact on the feasible region of the problem. Therefore, it can be removed without affecting the solution to the problem. This contrasts with binding constraints which form the boundaries of the feasible region and non-binding constraints which touch but do not form the boundaries of the feasible region.
