xB B b
where b is the old RHS and B is the basic
matrix. Remember B-1 is found in the optimal
tableau below the entries which initially had an
identity submatrix.

The optimal value is given by z C B B b
When b is changed to b , the corresponding
new solution and new objective value are got by
replacing b with b .
