and minerals for the least cost? What will this salad cost? Use the graphical method.
Present both primal and dual forms, including their graphs. (10 Marks)
2. You are required to develop a multiple linear regression model based on the data given
below, reporting about multicollinearity to refine your model, if required. Consider
Profit (Rs.) as the dependent variable. Interpret your results.
Suppose your dependent variable (Profit) takes values of “High profit” (Profit > Rs
1,35,000) or “Low profit”: in such case what type of regression model would you like to
use and why? (For this part of the question, you need not develop the model or interpret
the results.) (10 Marks)
