In a goal programming problem with two goals at the same priority level, all the deviational variables are equal to zero in the optimal solution.This means
A)there is no feasible solution to the problem.
B)all goals are fully achieved.
C)nonlinear programming must be used to solve this.
D)this problem was an integer programming problem.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When all the deviational variables are equal to zero in a goal programming problem, it means that all the goals have been fully achieved. Therefore, option B is the correct choice. Option A is incorrect because if there was no feasible solution, then there would have been deviational variables. Option C is irrelevant as the method used to solve the problem is not mentioned. Option D is also incorrect as there is no mention that this problem was an integer programming problem.
