5 2. (25%) Consider a transportation problem
5 2. (25%) Consider a transportation problem having the following parameter table: Destination 1 2 3 4 5 Supply 1 8 6 3 7 5 20 Source 2 5 M 8 4 7 30 3 6 3 9 6 8 30 4 0 0 0 0 0 20 Demand 25 25 20 10 20 After applying several iterations of the transportation simplex method, a BF solution is obtained that has the following basic variables: X13 = 20, X21 = 25, X24 = 5, X32 = 25,x34 = 5, X42=0, x43 0, x45 = 20. (a) (15%) Continue the transportation simplex method for TWO ITERATIONS. (b)(10%) After two iterations, state whether the solution is optimal and, if so, why
