A health Centre will be built to serve 7 communities. The geographical location of the communities and their population is shown in the table below.
Communities A, X =2.5 (km), Y=4.5(km), Population( 000's)=2
Communities B, X =2.5 (km), Y=2.5(km), Population( 000's)=5
Communities C, X =5.5 (km), Y=4.5(km), Population( 000's)=10
Communities D, X =5 (km), Y=2(km), Population( 000's)=7
Communities E, X =8 (km), Y=5(km), Population( 000's)=10
Communities F, X =7 (km), Y=2(km), Population( 000's)=20
Communities G, X =9 (km), Y=2.5(km), Population( 000's)=14
There is a possibility of building the Centre in two communities, community C and F. Based on the Demand-Distance criterion what is your recommendation for the site of the Centre. The distances to be measured based on Rectilinear method.

Node a = new Node(5);Node b = new Node(3, a);Node c = new Node(7, b);Node d = new Node(2, c);Node firstNode = d;Node currentNode = firstNode;
a.What is the contents of the chain referenced by firstNode?
b.What is the data held in the node referred to by currentNode?
A retail store in Des Moines, Iowa, receives shipments of a particular product from KansasCity and Minneapolis.
Let x 5 number of units of the product received from Kansas City y 5 number of units of the product received from Minneapolisa. Write an expression for the total number of units of the product received by the retail store in Des Moines.
b. Shipments from Kansas City cost $0.20 per unit, and shipments from Minneapolis cost$0.25 per unit. Develop an objective function representing the total cost of shipments to Des Moines.
c. Assuming the monthly demand at the retail store is 5000 units, develop a constraint that requires 5000 units to be shipped to Des Moines.
d. No more than 4000 units can be shipped from Kansas City, and no more than 3000 units can be shipped from Minneapolis in a month. Develop constraints to model this situation.
e. Of course, negative amounts cannot be shipped. Combine the objective function and constraints developed to state a mathematical model…

- In the original Gorman Construction Company problem, we found the shortest distance from the office (node 1) to the construction site located at node 6. Because some of the roads are highways and others are city streets, the shortest-distance routes between the office and the construction site may not necessarily provide the quickest or shortest-time route.
