The dual constraints and objective coefficients on are unchanged, so remains dual feasible. Since every component of is positive, complementary slackness forces every constraint of any primal optimum paired with it to bind. Let be the original three-by-three constraint matrix and . It is invertible, and the only possible paired primal point is
If this point is nonnegative, it is primal feasible with zero slacks and , proving optimal. Conversely, if is optimal, linear programming duality supplies a paired primal optimum, and complementary slackness forces it to be exactly this point. This proves the strictly positive dual certificate and right-hand-side sensitivity criterion:
Non-strict inequalities are essential: boundary cases can be degenerate but retain the same optimal dual vector. This is the complete range, not just a small-perturbation sufficient condition for linear programming sensitivity within a fixed optimal basis.
