Binary problem relaxation
This is the problem we looked at in class for the generators.
Notice that the only differences are:
- the binary variables become positive variables, thepr
- the problem is solved as an LP not an MIP
- the constraints for .LO and .UP are added, where required, depending on the partial solution solved

Example problem to practice
The objective is to minimize the objective function value, \(z\). The table or partial solutions is provided below. The only constraints are that all the 3 search variables must be binary (0 or 1). The "relaxed" refers to the relaxed problem solution.
Use the depth-first search method, and when branching, choose the branch with \(x_i = 0\) before the \(x_i=1\) branch.
If you do this, your nodes will have the following solution order:
Node 0 \((z=82.80)\) Node 1 \((z=80.67)\)
