48 1 1 1 49 So Problem 3 (Use two digits after decimal point) 51 DM Office Products (DMOP) is a wholesale supplier of office products with one facility in 52 Pennsylvania. It has decided to build a new distribution warehouse in the state of New York 53 to help serve the growing demand in that market. It has six major customers located in 54 New York City, Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Albany, and Mount Vernon. Though 55 New York City is the largest market, it also has the greatest competition and DMOP is not 56 a major player there. When DMOP ships an order to a customer, it uses its own small fleet 57 of two trucks to deliver. So the cost of delivery is essentially the same for a full or partially full 58 truck. The expected number of annual shipments to each city and their coordinates on an X, Y| 59 igrid are shown in the following table. 1 1 1 1 1 1 60 61 City 62 Albany 63 Buffalo 64 Mount Verno! 65 NY City 66 Rochester 67 Syracuse 68 X- coordinates 2300 325 420 2275 840 1420 Y- Number of coordinates shipments 630 164) 850 88 540 68 25 72 180 120 900 96 69 70 04 Recommened the location (C, and Cy) for the new warehouse for DMOP by using the centroid method. 71 72
