Need to solve a linear programming problem? Finished using the Simplex Method but youre not getting the right answer? One of the major drawbacks to the Simplex Method is you have to keep track of a page full of tedious calculations AND choose the correct row operations. When you first learn this technique its hard to do both correctly.

The Simplex Method involves using a sequence of "If/Thens" that lead you to the initial Simplex Table. This app walks you through the set up and creates the initial table. From there you can either use the method on your own or have it help you through Hints. Choose the operation and the app will generate the new table for you. You get to focus solely on practicing and experimenting.

What if you do all this handwritten work and still cant get the answer?

You can also purchase the Instant Solution upgrade. Type in the system of equations and click SOLUTION. It will generate all the correct row operations and tables and display them all at once. Now you can follow along and try to find your mistake.
