32. Students at a college in Ohio are planning a spring break vacation to one of three locations: Myr-
tle Beach (MB), Daytona Beach (DB), or Ft. Lauderdale (FL). They are to base their decision on
three criteria-weather, cost, and potential fun (based on an Internet survey of friends and ac-
quaintances at other colleges). The students have developed the following pairwise comparisons
for the locations for each criterion and for the three criteria:
