Question: After thinking about it for a while, your friend tells you that they may want to open exactly two DCs . She wants these DCs

After thinking about it for a while, your friend tells you that they may want to open exactly two DCs. She wants these DCs to be located in two of the five candidate cities (Chihuahua, Mexico City, Monterrey, Puebla, San Luis Potosi), but they should not be located in the same city. The plan would be to distribute all the goods to these two DCs, using trucks. Let's assume that the cost of opening and operating such a DC in any of these cities would be about the same and that the cost of outbound transportation from the DC to the cities is about the same on a per-unit per-mile basis.
