Definition: In the context of a maximization problem with a constraint, the shadow price
on the constrain is the amount that the objective function of the maximization
would increase by if the constraint were relaxed by one unit.
The value of a Lagrangian multiplier is a shadow price.
This is a striking and useful fact, but takes some practice to understand.
