Answer to Question 1

A poorly scaled modelone in which the parameters of the objective and constraint functions differ by several orders of magnitude may cause round-off errors in internal computations or error messages such as The conditions for Assume Linear Model are not satisfied. Experts often suggest that the values of the coefficients in the objective function and constraints, as well as the right-hand sides, should not differ from each other by a factor of more than 1,000 or 10,000.
