Consider the following network representation of a transportation problem. The supplies, demands, and transportation costs per unit are shown on the network.
The supplies, demands, and transportation costs per unit are shown on the network. (a) Develop a linear programming model for this problem; be sure to define the variables in your model. Let x11= amount shipped from Jefferson City to Des Moines x12= amount shipped from Jefferson City to Kansas City x13= amount shipped from Jefferson City to St. Louis x21= amount shipped from Omaha to Des Moines x22= amount shipped from Omaha to Kansas City x23= amount shipped from Omaha to St. Louis Min s.t. From Jefferson City From Omaha To Des Moines To Kansas City To St. Louis From Omaha To Kansas City x11′,x12′,x13′x21′,x22′x23≥0
Solve the linear program to determine the optimal solution.
