Let's solve the question step by step as requested.
---
### **Step A: Construct the Augmented Form with Slack Variables**
**Original Problem:**
Maximize \( Z = -5x_1 + 5x_2 + 13x_3 \)
Subject to:
1. \( -x_1 + x_2 + 3x_3 \leq 20 \)
2. \( 12x_1 + 4x_2 + 10x_3 \leq 90 \)
3. \( x_1, x_2, x_3 \geq 0 \)
**Introducing Slack Variables:**
- Let \( x_4 \) be the slack variable for the first constraint.
- Let \( x_5 \) be the slack variable for the second constraint.
**Augmented System:**
\[
\begin{align*}
\text{Maximize:} \quad & Z = -5x_1 + 5x_2 + 13x_3 \\
\text{Subject to:} \quad & -x_1 + x_2 + 3x_3 + x_4 = 20 \\
& 12x_1 + 4x_2 + 10x_3 + x_5 = 90 \\
& x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5 \geq 0
\end{align*}
\]
**Explanation:**
We add slack variables to turn inequalities into equalities, enabling us to use the simplex method.
---
### **Step B: Find the Optimal Solution and Value from the Final Tableau**
Given Final Simplex Tableau:
| Basic Variable | Eq | Z | \(x_1\) | \(x_2\) | \(x_3\) | \(x_4\) | \(x_5\) | Right Side |
|----------------|----|---|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|------------|
| Z | 0 | 1 | 0 | 2 | 5 | 0 | 100 |
| \(x_2\) | 1 | 0 | -1 | 1 | 3 | 1 | 0 | 20 |
| \(x_5\) | 2 | 0 | 16 | 0 | -2 | -4 | 1 | 10 |
**Step 1: Read Solution from Tableau**
- The basic variables are \(x_2\) and \(x_5\).
- Non-basic variables (set to 0): \(x_1 = 0\), \(x_3 = 0\), \(x_4 = 0\)
- \(x_2 = 20\) (from row 2, right side)
- \(x_5 = 10\) (from row 3, right side)
**Step 2: Compute the Optimal Value**
Plug values back into the original objective function:
\[
Z = -5x_1 + 5x_2 + 13x_3 = -5(0) + 5(20) + 13(0) = 100
\]
**Explanation:**
The optimal solution is where non-basic variables are zero and the basic variables take the right-side values from the tableau.
---
### **Final Answers**
**a. Augmented LP:**
\[
\text{Maximize } Z = -5x_1 + 5x_2 + 13x_3
\]
\[
\begin{align*}
-x_1 + x_2 + 3x_3 + x_4 &= 20 \\
12x_1 + 4x_2 + 10x_3 + x_5 &= 90 \\
x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5 &\geq 0
\end{align*}
\]
**b. Optimal Solution:**
\[
x_1 = 0, \quad x_2 = 20, \quad x_3 = 0, \quad x_4 = 0, \quad x_5 = 10
\]
**Optimal Value:** \(\boxed{Z = 100}\)

**Part A: Construct the augmented LP with slack variables**
Original LP:
\[
\text{Maximize } Z = -5x_1 + 5x_2 + 13x_3
\]
Subject to:
\[
\begin{cases}
-x_1 + x_2 + 3x_3 \leq 20 \\
12x_1 + 4x_2 + 10x_3 \leq 90 \\
x_1, x_2, x_3 \geq 0
\end{cases}
\]
**Introduce slack variables \(x_4, x_5 \):**
\[
\begin{cases}
-x_1 + x_2 + 3x_3 + x_4 = 20 \\
12x_1 + 4x_2 + 10x_3 + x_5 = 90 \\
x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5 \geq 0
\end{cases}
\]
**Explanation:**
Adding slack variables converts inequalities into equalities, forming the augmented system suitable for the simplex method.
---
**Part B: Find the optimal solution and optimal value**
Given the final simplex tableau:
| Basic Variable | Eq | \(Z\) | \(x_1\) | \(x_2\) | \(x_3\) | \(x_4\) | \(x_5\) | Right Side |
|------------------|-----|-------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|--------------|
| \(Z\) | | 1 | 0 | 2 | 5 | 0 | 0 | 100 |
| \(x_2\) | 1 | 0 | -1 | 1 | 3 | 1 | 0 | 20 |
| \(x_5\) | 2 | 0 | 16 | 0 | -2 | 0 | 1 | 10 |
**Step 1: Determine basic variables and solution:**
- Basic variables are \(x_2\) and \(x_5\).
- Non-basic variables \(x_1, x_3, x_4 = 0\).
- From the tableau:
\[
x_2 = 20, \quad x_5 = 10
\]
- Values of non-basic variables:
\[
x_1 = 0, \quad x_3 = 0, \quad x_4 = 0
\]
**Step 2: Compute the optimal value:**
\[
Z = -5x_1 + 5x_2 + 13x_3 = -5(0) + 5(20) + 13(0) = 100
\]
**Final Answer:**
\[
\boxed{
\text{Optimal solution:} \quad x_1=0, \; x_2=20, \; x_3=0, \; x_4=0, \; x_5=10
}
\]
\[
\boxed{
\text{Maximum value of } Z = \mathbf{100}
}
\]
