At the current basic feasible solution (bfs) $v_0 (v_0 \in \mathbb{R}^5)$, the simplex method yields the following form of a linear programming problem in standard form:

minimize $z = -x_1 - 2x_2$

s.t.

$x_3 = 2 + 2x_1 - x_2$

$x_4 = 7 + x_1 - 2x_2$

$x_5 = 3 - x_1$

$x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5 \geq 0$

Here the objective function is written as a function of the non-basic variables. If the simplex method moves to the adjacent bfs $v_1 (v_1 \in \mathbb{R}^5)$ that best improves the objective function, which of the following represents the objective function at $v_1$, assuming that the objective function is written in the same manner as above?

A

$z = -4 - 5x_1 + 2x_3$

B

$z = -3 + x_5 - 2x_2$

C

$z = -4 - 5x_1 + 2x_4$

D

$z = -6 - 5x_1 + 2x_3$
