A company is going to construct a new warehouse served by suppliers A, B, and C. The locations of the three suppliers and the number of truck carriers that will serve the warehouse are shown in the following table: Supplier X-coordinate Y-coordinate # of Truck load Supplier-A 150 250 Supplier-B 300 100 Supplier-C 500 400 140 110 170 Based on the labor availability, community interests, county law, and existing highway & transportation regulations, three possible sites are located. The coordinates of these three proposed sites are tabulated below: Site-2 Site-3 Proposed Site X-coordinate Site-1 100 500 200 Y-coordinate 200 400 100 Determine the best site among the proposed sites using the load-distance technique. |
