In goal programming models, suppose we have solved the linear program corresponding to the first priority by minimizing $10 \mathrm{u}_{1}$. If $\mathrm{u}_{1}=5$ in the optimal solution, then the linear program corresponding to the second priority will have
A) no new constraints
B) one additional constraint $\mathrm{u}_{1}=5$
C) one additional constraint $u_{1} \geq 5$
D) one additional constraint $u_{1} \leq 5$

In goal programming, once the first priority is solved, the achieved value becomes a constraint for the next priority. Thus, $u_{1}=5$ becomes a constraint for the second priority.
