Question

During the next four months, a construction firm must
complete three projects. Project 1 must be completed within
three months and requires 8 months of labor. Project 2 must
be completed within four months and requires 10 months of
labor. Project 3 must be completed at the end of two months
and requires 12 months of labor. Each month, 8 workers are
available. During a given month, no more than 6 workers can
work on a single job. Formulate a maximum-flow problem
that could be used to determine whether all three projects can
be completed on time. (Hint: If the maximum flow in the
network is 30, then all projects can be completed on time.)
