Introduce slack variables as necessary, then write the initial simplex tableau for each linear programming problem. Find $x_{1} \geq 0$ and $x_{2} \geq 0$ such that $$ \begin{aligned} x_{1}+x_{2} & \leq 10 \\ 5 x_{1}+2 x_{2} & \leq 20 \\ x_{1}+2 x_{2} & \leq 36 \end{aligned} $$ and $z=x_{1}+3 x_{2}$ is maximized.

Introduce slack variables as necessary, then write the initial simplex tableau for each linear programming problem. Find $x_{1} \geq 0$ and $x_{2} \geq 0$ such that $$ \begin{array}{l}{2 x_{1}+3 x_{2} \leq 100} \\ {5 x_{1}+4 x_{2} \leq 200}\end{array} $$ and $z=x_{1}+3 x_{2}$ is maximized.
