If an automated pizza-ordering system uses linear programming to minimize cost, which consequence follows when a constraint equation limiting available pepperoni is removed?

💡 Explanation

Removing the pepperoni constraint means the linear programming solver is free to use more pepperoni, even if other costs increase slightly, because the cost minimization objective function prioritizes the overall cost rather than individual ingredients; therefore, pepperoni use may increase, rather than other options which are contingent on other market factors.
