Example The example above is converted into the following augmented form: {| |- | colspan="2" | Maximize: | (objective function) |- | subject to: | | (augmented constraint) |- | | | (augmented constraint) |- | | | (augmented constraint) |- | | |} where are (non-negative) slack variables, representing in this example the unused area, the amount of unused fertilizer, and the amount of unused pesticide.
