Programação linear: uma possível abordagem no ensino médio

Abstract

This work talks about linear programming, discussing and exposing their basic concepts, methods of solving a problem in PL (specifically the graphical method and the simplex method) proposing the use of the programs Geogebra and OR Simplex, as a tool to help to solve these problems. In general, this study seeks to relate the PL the contextualization of teaching mathematics, the technique of study directed and even with the mathematical modeling, thus to propose some questions and important points regarding a possible approach to PL for secondary education with the aim of enriching the possible alternatives that the mathematics teacher has to work with a mathematics more contextualized, interdisciplinary and diverse.
