Resumen:
As part of the Operations Research (OR), Linear Programming (LP) is characterized
as an optimization technique aimed at solving models described by linear equations,
benefiting from the increasing processing power of computers. The article in screen gives a
linear programming problem (LPP) classic, formulated from information from the textile
industry. In this sense, the objective is to propose a production mix to maximize revenues
from a female underwear factory located in the mountainous region of Rio de Janeiro, from a
given amount of available inputs. Comparing the current practice of the company and the
scenario proposed by the model, optimized by the Simplex Method, there was an
improvement in the annual report of the order of 9.3%, which, in 2015, would R$161,223.53
to R$176,219.31.
