The model was entered into an Excel spreadsheet and the table below shows part of the sensitivity report. Provide an interpretation

$F$8 Lawyers 1358.906273 0
$F$9 Guns 2573.031361 0
$F$10 Money 2523.937562 0
Answer: The model provides a solution that calls for only 1358.9 lawyers, 2573.03 guns and 2523.9 thousands of dollars, far below the amount on hand for this endeavor. The Lagrange Multipliers are all zero, which reflects the lack of urgency in acquiring more lawyers, guns, and money. Since Zevon is not using all that they already have, there is no benefit to acquiring any more of these resources.
